Grand Cru: The Wine Maker

About this game

Your father left you a vineyard. The rest is up to you.

Grand Cru: The Winemaker is a deep wine estate management simulation set in Bordeaux, France. Start with a modest

inherited plot and transform it into a prestigious wine domain through strategic decisions, skillful winemaking,

and sharp business sense.

🍇 Grow

Manage vineyards across legendary appellations — Saint-Émilion, Pauillac, Margaux, and more. Prune, treat, and

harvest at the perfect moment. Watch the weather, because a late frost or unexpected rain can ruin an entire

vintage.

🍷 Craft

Fine-tune every batch with 7 winemaking sliders: ferment vessel, temperature, extraction, duration, malolactic

fermentation, oak ratio, and toasting level. Your choices determine structure, complexity, and character. As your

tasting skill grows, hidden details are revealed — from vague impressions to precise scores.

💰 Sell

Meet wholesale buyers, negotiate prices face-to-face, and supply Michelin-starred chefs. Build relationships with

collectors, courtiers, importers, and retail chains — each with unique preferences and bargaining styles.

🏆 Compete

Enter your wines in Bordeaux competitions. Earn awards that boost your reputation and prices. Read what critics

think in the seasonal gazette — a 92 from Marcel Dupont changes everything.

📖 Discover

Uncover the story behind your father's legendary "Cuvée du Père." Every season brings narrative events, tough

choices, and surprises that shape your journey.
