About the game
Vintage is about the Douro River Valley of Portugal, the oldest demarcated wine producing region in the world, designated World Heritage, and the production of port wine. Each player will attempt to buy wine-growing estates and plant them with the best grape varieties to try and produce the highest quality port wine - a VINTAGE. This game has a simple version and a normal version. The simple version is aimed at players who are not used to this kind of family strategy games. The game has fewer options and a higher degree of luck. It plays faster and is easy to learn. With the normal version you will discover the VINTAGE game in its fullness, with many more strategic options and where luck plays a minor role. It’s a longer and more challenging game but with only slightly more complex rules. Cheers!

Some setups, rules and scoring details may still vary by player count, so check your edition’s rulebook for the exact configuration.
The listed playing time for Vintage is 60–120 minutes. This is the publisher’s estimate for a full game.

Setup and teaching time are not included in this estimate.
The catalogue lists Vintage for ages 10 and up. This is the publisher’s recommendation and reflects reading demands, rule complexity and small components rather than theme alone.
