Colombard are the main varieties at the estate. Wine
grapes are growing once a year only; pruning is end of
September beginning of October and the harvest starts
by end of January until about the first week of March
depending on weather conditions.
However fresh Table Grapes – of the variety “Maroon
Seedless” originally from Australia are growing all year
around in a protected area of the estate.
The guided tour of the vineyards will lead visitors to this
area for a perfect picture stop but sorry no picking of
grapes is allowed! except during specially announced
harvesting activities.

10. Vineyard and Winery Tour (Tour only)

Thailand on which it is not permitted to serve any
alcoholic beverages including the wine tasting in
our tours thus we serve 100% fresh grape juice to
all our visitors on those days.
On religious holidays the children rate will
apply to all visitors

12. Our guides conducting the vineyard and winery tours are doing their
best to make the tour as informative and educational as possible but
due to the many different nationalities of our visitors, occasionally
language barriers occur thus don’t hesitate to ask for additional
information.
Also please note that a winery is not a factory where there is constant
activity like bottling, labeling amongst other tasks. Our guides will
explain the whole winemaking process from harvesting - destemming
and crushing – pre-fermentation (maceration) – fermentation – aging in
the various tanks (stainless steel, large oak vats and French Oak
Barrels = Barrique) and finally bottling which all in all takes up to 22
months. Besides the walk through the winery and the explanations by
the guide there is a flow chart in the wine tasting and education room
to make this process more understandable as well
Finally, we often hear the comment, why the local produced wines
are very expensive; the explanation is that our wines are levied
with approximately 360% of various taxes, the same way as
imported ones since wine is considered a luxury product.

13. Wine & Dine a la carte
