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.

choices, and surprises that shape your journey.
