More informations about the wines of Thailand
Thailand, formerly known as Siam, is a kingdom in Southeast Asia. Located in the centre of the Indochinese peninsula, it borders Malaysia to the south, Cambodia to the southeast, Laos to the east and Myanmar (Burma) to the west. Thailand is perhaps best known for its beer, with brands such as Chang and Singha, but it also has a number of rum producers and the wine industry is also beginning to gain international recognition, often through pairings with Thai cuisine. Thailand's first Vineyards were planted in the 1960s and were intended to produce table Grapes, but over the past three or four decades a number of vinifera varieties have also been grown.
