Strolling by row upon row of grape vines nestled in the lush green Asoke valley, Thailand's first woman oenologist explains why she thinks women are naturally better winemakers than men.
"First of all women have better taste perception than men," Nikki Lohitnavy says, with a smile. "And paying attention to small details is not what guys often do."
She walks on through her family's GranMonte vineyard, which sits by the mountainous Khao Yai National Park 155 km north of Bangkok, to the winery that she set up in December.
