In the Veneto region of Northern Italy, winemaking is not simply an industry – it is a multi-generational dialogue with the land. Cantina De Pra embodies this philosophy entirely. Situated in the fertile plains of Treviso, this historic estate balances time-honored Italian traditions with modern, temperature-controlled viticulture. The result is a curated collection of wines that speak clearly of their alluvial terroir, offering crisp mineral structures and pure fruit profiles.
The estate’s precision is beautifully showcased through two contrasting varietals, each reflecting a different aspect of the Treviso climate:
🌿 Cantina De Pra Pinot Grigio: A celebration of alpine freshness. This white wine benefits from the cool evening breezes coming down from the mountains, allowing the grapes to retain high natural acidity. It opens with vibrant aromas of green apple, crushed stone minerals, and white orchard blossoms, leading to a clean, highly refreshing finish.
🍇 Cantina De Pra Cabernet Sauvignon: A refined, structured red that thrives in the sun-warmed valley soils. Moving away from over-extracted, heavily oaked styles, De Pra focuses on a vibrant, fruit-forward expression. It delivers a medium-bodied profile packed with ripe blackcurrant, dark cherry, and a subtle ground-pepper spice, held together by velvety, balanced tannins.
These expressions are crafted with food in mind, cutting through rich textures while complementing delicate seasonings:
🌿 Pinot Grigio Pairings: An exceptional match for classic Italian seafood risotto, light antipasti, or grilled sea bass. When dining in Bangkok, it pairs beautifully with the lime-driven spice of a classic Pla Goong (shrimp salad with lemongrass) or the crisp textures of Tod Mun Pla (Thai fish cakes).
🍇 Cabernet Sauvignon Pairings: Built for savory depth, this red pairs traditionally with pan-seared duck breast, roasted lamb chops, or a prime ribeye steak. For an authentic local match, try it alongside a rich, slow-simmered beef Massaman curry or smoky Suea Rong Hai (Crying Tiger grilled beef) where the dark fruit notes balance the savory char.

You open a bottle of red for a casual weekend dinner at home, only for it to coat your tongue in heavy, bone-dry oak tannins that completely clobber whatever food you’re eating.
