Viticulture World

Viticulture World turns the game cooperative. Players have six years to reach individual victory-point targets while collectively advancing a shared influence track across asymmetric regional scenarios.

Bordeaux

Bordeaux is a newer alternative-board expansion with four full worker-placement seasons, a revised wake-up chart, expert actions, a trade market and end-game conversion of leftover grapes, wine and coins.

Moor Visitors

Moor Visitors adds 40 Visitor cards designed by Uwe Rosenberg, Jamey Stegmaier and Alan Stone. It expands the existing Visitor decks rather than replacing them.

Visit from the Rhine Valley

Rhine Valley is an 80-card replacement visitor deck focused more heavily on the wine business and less on direct victory-point generation. Its cards use unique backs and are intended to replace rather than mix with the normal Visitor cards.

Which Viticulture expansion should you get first?

Tuscany Essential Edition remains the broadest first expansion for groups that want a deeper competitive game. Choose World for co-op, Bordeaux for an alternative advanced board, or one of the Visitor packs for low-overhead card variety.
