Winery Overview & History
Monsoon Valley leads Thailand’s modern wine movement, founded to explore viticulture in tropical latitudes. Hillside vineyards and smart canopy work deliver freshness and balance in a warm climate.
Vineyard Location & Terroir
Main sites include Hua Hin Hills (near the Gulf of Thailand) and elevated inland slopes. Sandy-clay and lateritic soils, sea breezes, and diurnal variation help retain acidity and aromatic lift.
Grape Varieties & Wine Style
International and regional grapes: Shiraz/Syrah, Colombard, Chenin Blanc, Sangiovese. Styles are bright, fruit-forward, and savory, designed for Thai cuisine pairing.
Signature Wines
- Monsoon Valley Shiraz — Juicy red fruit with subtle spice and soft tannins.
- Colombard — Crisp tropical-citrus profile for coastal fare.
- Late Harvest Chenin Blanc — Lush, aromatic, and gently sweet.
Winemaking & Cellar Practices
Night harvesting, temperature control, and careful canopy/irrigation management. Stainless steel and selective oak preserve fruit clarity.
