GranMonte Vineyard (Thai: ไร่องุ่นกราน-มอนเต้) is a vineyard located outside Khao Yai National Park in Pak Chong district of Nakhon Ratchasima province, Thailand specializing in tropical viticulture.

History

Founded in 1999 by Visooth Lohitnavy, the vineyard produces traditional white and red grape wines. Visooth subsequently founded the Thai Wine Association in 2004.

In 2025, Khao Yai Vanilla launched on the GranMonte estate to provide single-origin vanilla.

Editorial summary

This brief starts where responsible research should: with the source description of “GranMonte Vineyard” as open-knowledge reference entry. Everything that follows is an evidence route, not borrowed authority.

Editorial reviewA dependable orientation record for establishing vocabulary, names and a first evidence trail. The current lead gives the account dated anchors—1999, 2004, 2021, 2025—that can be checked directly. The selected authority fields contribute no independent date. The account is most persuasive where GranMonte, Vineyard and Open-knowledge can be independently traced.
Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

The subject matters to the general reference register because the source frames it as open-knowledge reference entry. Its deeper value depends on whether names, dates, institutions and citations support that framing.

Evidence profile

Named sources, stable identifiers and responsible institutions provide the strongest route from overview to verifiable evidence. The source revision retrieved here is dated Jul 15, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q139761803. None of the 0 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 1999, 2004, 2021 and 2025.

Critical limits

A concise general-reference account can conceal disagreements about scope, terminology or the weight assigned to individual sources. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.

How to read it

Use the entry as an orientation point, then follow its citations and revision history. Names, dates and institutional relationships should be checked against the original record.
