The berry notes can bridge with fruit elements in dishes, and herbal notes can echo those found in marinades or salads.

## Wine making process

The Spring Village Pinot Noir 2024 is made from 100% Pinot Noir grapes sourced from vineyards around Melbourne in South Eastern Australia. The winemaking process involves controlled fermentation to develop the wine's characteristic fruity and spicy notes. While specific aging details are not provided, Pinot Noir often undergoes some form of maturation, potentially including oak, to integrate flavors and texture. The wine is packaged in a 1000 ml PET bottle, which is an innovative element in its presentation.
