Wine Cellar
Let’s auction off some wine! You and your rival sommeliers have decided to face off to determine who is the best. Each person will take on a client, building a cellar that ages well and is suited to the client’s tastes. Over the course of eight rounds in Wine Cellar, players will collect wine bottles to create a cellar for their client.
Gameplay
Bottles will be arranged to create a timeline for the order in which the wine will be consumed. Each bottle is worth different amounts based upon where it is in the timeline. Players will also receive points based on their client’s preferences for wine type and country of origin. Based on your client card, you want certain countries and certain types of wine. You bid with wine bottles then those become the next wine bottles auctioned. Since you score for how you position bottles in your cellar from top to bottom, there’s a challenge figuring out where the best placements are.
Summarised
Excellent bidding game that is simple to teach and quick to play. Wine Cellar works at a variety of player counts and regardless of how many you’re playing with, it’s not going to overstay its welcome.
