About PB Valley Khao Yai Winery

Khao Yai's rolling green hills cradle PB Valley Khao Yai Winery, a cool escape from the lowland heat. Wind through rubber tree roads until grape rows snap into view, leaves shivering in mountain air. Damp earth and crushed grapes perfume the working estate. Inside, polished concrete keeps things cool. Glasses clink softly beyond the tasting room. Misty ridges frame lazy afternoons. Dr. Piya Bhirombhakdi planted vines here in the early 1990s, trusting the climate, and that persistence still flavors every corner.

What to See & Do

The Vineyard Rows

Stride between Shiraz and Chenin Blanc rows. Scale hits fast. Hands prune. Insects buzz. Gravel crunches underfoot. The reservoir glints below, grander when morning mist lingers.

The Winemaking Facility

Guides pause beside stainless tanks that gleam like mirrors. Yeasty fermentation drifts in the air. The route runs from crusher-destemmer to French oak barrels in the damp cellar, where oak and wine breathe together.

The Great Hornbill Viewing Spot

Quiet guests may spot great hornbills, yellow-and-black bills flashing between treetops. Their echoing calls signal how farmland and Khao Yai forest merge here.

The Tasting Room and Shop

Swirl their Colombard. Pale gold catches the light. Floral notes finish crisp. Shelves display bottles stamped with the hornbill logo.

Practical Information

Opening Hours

The winery opens daily. But tour and tasting hours shift with the seasons. Check official channels before you drive out. Last tours have cutoffs.

Tickets & Pricing

Grounds entry is free. Guided vineyard and winery tours with tasting need tickets. Book online early for weekends or holidays. The package sits mid-range for Khao Yai, cheaper than elite private tours yet deeper than café browsing.

Best Time to Visit

The harvest season, which usually falls between January and March, is a fascinating time to visit PB Valley Khao Yai Winery. You'll see the most activity in the fields and the winery itself. That said, it's also the busiest period. Visiting on a weekday outside of harvest has a much more relaxed pace, though the vines might be bare or just sprouting new leaves, which gives a different feel.

Suggested Duration

Allow two to three hours for tour, tasting, vineyard stroll, restaurant bite, and shop browse. Some stretch it into half a day and pair another stop nearby.

Getting There

PB Valley Khao Yai Winery sits off Highway 2, Bangkok to Khao Yai. A private car or hired driver gives maximum flexibility. No public buses roll the final farm lanes. The drive from Khao Yai town takes 45 minutes through countryside. Day tours from Bangkok or Pak Chong run smoothly yet cost more. Taxis from Pak Chong work if you negotiate waiting fees.

Tips & Advice

Wear closed-toe shoes you don't mind dusting. Vineyard paths are unpaved and uneven.
The on-site restaurant dishes out Thai and international fare. Locals swear by the pizza. It marries oddly well with their fruity red.
Top off in Pak Chong town before you aim for PB Valley Khao Yai Winery. Petrol stations vanish fast once you hit the countryside. Worth it.
The tour feels touristy. It is. Yet PB Valley Khao Yai Winery remains one of the few places in Thailand that lets you walk behind the scenes of large-scale winemaking. Go anyway.
