Domaine de la Pépière Muscadet Sèvre-et-Maine
Wine🇫🇷 Loire, France · Melon de Bourgogne
Briny, humble, unpretentious — the wine of Alice's borrowed seaside rectory and the friendships that keep finding their way back there.
The Pour
2
Domaine Huet Vouvray Sec
Crisp white🇫🇷 Loire, France · Chenin Blanc
Restrained and articulate, graceful on the surface with an ache underneath. Reads like the emails themselves.
3
Domaine Gramenon Côtes du Rhône
Medium-bodied red🇫🇷 Rhône, France · Grenache
Generous and sun-warmed, built for long outdoor lunches with people you've loved for years. The friendship chapters in a glass.
The Mood
Four people circling love and doubt over long emails and longer silences, set between a west-of-Ireland coastal town and a Dublin flat. Contemplative, essayistic, hopeful in a way Rooney rarely allows herself. Read slowly, ideally near the sea, with something correspondence-shaped nearby.
