Chenin
Bangkok, Thailand
On Sukhumvit 31, Chenin positions itself as one of Bangkok's serious wine-led addresses, recognised by Star Wine List in 2026 at a moment when the city's bar scene has grown sharply more sophisticated. The name alone signals intent: chenin blanc, the Loire Valley's most shape-shifting grape, is a deliberate statement of programme depth over crowd-pleasing convention.

Cloud Wine
Bangkok, Thailand
Cloud Wine occupies a wine-bar slot inside The Commons, the community mall on Sala Daeng Road that has reshaped how Si Lom residents spend their early evenings. The format is deliberately low-key: a bottle of wine paired with snacks sourced from the food vendors sharing the same building. For Bangkok visitors who find the city's rooftop bars too loud and its hotel lounges too formal, Cloud Wine offers a different register entirely.

Mod Kaew Wine Bar
Bangkok, Thailand
Mod Kaew Wine Bar has earned back-to-back Star Wine List recognition in 2025 and 2026, placing it among Bangkok's most seriously regarded wine destinations. Located on Soi Sueksa Wittaya off Sathon Soi 12 in Bang Rak, it operates in a neighbourhood that has quietly become one of the city's more concentrated pockets of considered drinking. For wine-focused evenings in Bangkok, the recognition is hard to argue with.

MUST Wine Bar
Bangkok, Thailand
MUST Wine Bar occupies the second floor of SODALITY on Thong Lo Soi 13, bringing a focused wine program to one of Bangkok's most wine-literate neighbourhoods. Recognised by Star Wine List in 2026, it sits within a growing tier of dedicated wine bars reshaping Bangkok's after-dark drinking scene. Practical and purposeful, it rewards visitors who come with a specific interest rather than a general thirst.

No Bar Wine Bar
Bangkok, Thailand
In the residential Ari neighbourhood, a brief walk from Ari BTS station, No Bar Wine Bar occupies a corner of Bangkok's wine scene that prioritises intimacy over spectacle. Created by a small group of wine-focused operators, it draws a local crowd that treats it as a neighbourhood anchor rather than a destination tick. The format is low-key, the selection considered, and the atmosphere closer to a Parisian cave à vins than a Bangkok bar strip.

Ombra Modern Tavern
Bangkok, Thailand
Ombra Modern Tavern sits on Thong Lo 13 Alley, one of Bangkok's most concentrated dining corridors, with a 2026 Star Wine List award signalling a wine program that places it above the neighbourhood's casual bar tier. The tavern format suggests a middle path between full-service dining room and dedicated wine bar, making it a useful reference point in the Watthana drinking scene.

Riedel Restaurant & Wine Cellar
Bangkok, Thailand
On the second floor of Gaysorn Village on Phloen Chit Road, Riedel Restaurant and Wine Cellar builds its format around an enomatic dispenser carrying approximately 30 wines by the glass at any given time. In a city where wine-by-the-glass programs rarely extend past six or eight labels, that depth of access positions Riedel in a different tier from Bangkok's standard restaurant wine offer.

Swirl
Bangkok, Thailand
Swirl is the wine bar and retail counter of boutique importer Riesling & Co., positioned a short walk from Thonglor road in Bangkok's Ekkamai-Thonglor corridor. Where most bars in the neighbourhood chase cocktail theatrics, Swirl holds to a wine-first program that doubles as a shop floor — a format that builds the kind of repeat clientele who come for the list and stay for the kitchen.

The Commons Saladeang
Bangkok, Thailand
Holding a Star Wine List award for 2026, The Commons Saladeang sits on Sala Daeng Road in Bangkok's Bang Rak district, drawing a crowd that takes its wine seriously in a city more associated with craft cocktails. The address places it within reach of Silom's after-work circuit while maintaining enough remove to feel deliberate rather than opportunistic.
Also recognized by Star Wine List
The Wine Merchant Park Silom
Bangkok, Thailand
Bangkok's wine bar scene has grown sharply in recent years, and this address positions itself at the more serious end of that spectrum, where format, selection depth, and setting carry as much weight as the pour itself.
Also recognized by Star Wine List
Wine Aspect
Bangkok, Thailand
Wine Aspect on Thong Lo holds a Star Wine List recognition for 2026, placing it among Bangkok's more seriously curated wine addresses. The setting on Soi Thong Lo positions it within the neighbourhood's denser concentration of specialist drink venues, where the list rather than the kitchen is the primary editorial proposition.
Also recognized by Star Wine List
Wine Climats
Bangkok, Thailand
Above the bustle of Silom Road, Wine Climats occupies a small, cosy perch on the second floor of a building most Bangkok regulars would walk past without a second glance. Live music on Friday evenings pulls a neighbourhood crowd, and the wine-forward format positions it in a quieter, more considered tier than the cocktail-heavy bar scene below. A Silom sleeper worth tracking down.
