Worth it
- Our take
- Meeple Mountain's reviewer calls Vineyard and Shields 'pure awesomeness' and, of all the Castles of Burgundy expansions, 'these two are the very best', but says Vineyard has a hefty rules overhead and no player aid (you must look up how many points a group of grapes scores in the rulebook). Punchboard says it is a 'big, newer expansion' with a whole new set of pieces and that it is 'really well done'. A BGG poster picked the Special Edition over the 2019 edition partly for 'a new significant expansion (vineyards)'. A Reddit poster who played it twice said it 'felt a little off' (post text only; comments not read).
