The Thai Wine Association was formed end of 2004, exactly ten years after the first Thai grape Wine was launched. The Kingdom's leading wine producers set up the association to join forces and immediately established winemaking quality standards and labeling requirements for Thai-produced grape wines. Members adhere to the Thai Wine Charter, which is in line with international standards. Further, our objective is to create awareness and enhance the image of Thai wines, both in the domestic and international markets. Lastly, we intend to educate Thai people about Thai grape wines and the health benefits associated with moderate wine drinking, thus creating an industry we Thais can be proud of. Our wine trail offers a new and exciting aspect to traveling through Thailand, while our already world-famous cuisine will be enhanced with the matching of local wines. The wineries are located in three viticultural areas (TVA): near Loie , Chaiang Rai and Pichit. Khao Yai on the Korat Plateau and Central in the Chao Phraya Delta. Arrangements for touring and tasting can be made directly with each winery.
