Truvino: Geographic Wine Discovery and Data Platform
A map-based wine exploration platform backed by a Python data enrichment pipeline processing 100K+ products, making it easy to discover wines by region with rich, standardized product data.

Wine industry data is scattered across inconsistent sources — different retailers, importers, and databases all describe the same products with different formats, missing fields, and conflicting information. There was no unified way for consumers or professionals to explore wines geographically, and product data lacked the standardization needed for meaningful comparison.
The platform needed to solve several fundamental problems:
- •Unify wine data from multiple inconsistent sources into a single clean dataset
- •Standardize product information including bottle sizes, regions, and categories
- •Create an intuitive geographic interface for exploring wines by region
- •Handle 100K+ products efficiently through automated data processing
Without clean, unified data and a compelling way to browse it, the wealth of the wine world remained fragmented and hard to navigate.
The Solution: Map-Based Discovery with a Data Pipeline
I built Truvino as a two-part system: a Python-powered data enrichment pipeline that processes and standardizes 100K+ wine products, and a modern web platform with an interactive geographic map that lets users explore wines by clicking on regions around the world. The data pipeline handles the messy work of normalizing bottle sizes, enriching product details, and categorizing wines by region, while the frontend makes that clean data explorable and beautiful.
The interactive map built with React Simple Maps provides an intuitive entry point — users click on a wine region and instantly see what's available. Combined with smooth Framer Motion animations and a responsive design, the platform makes geographic wine discovery feel natural and engaging regardless of whether you're a casual enthusiast or an industry professional.
