Eleanor Oliphant Is Completely Fine

The Pour
1
Domaine Huet Vouvray Demi-Sec
Crisp whiteπŸ‡«πŸ‡· Vouvray, Loire Valley, France Β· Chenin Blanc

Off-dry, quietly extraordinary, and initially awkward to classify. Vouvray demi-sec is Eleanor in a glass: neither one thing nor the other, initially off-putting, ultimately one of the most interesting things in the room.

2
E. Guigal Condrieu
Full-bodied whiteπŸ‡«πŸ‡· Condrieu, RhΓ΄ne Valley, France Β· Viognier

Floral and almost too much. Condrieu has an almost embarrassing perfume, the wine equivalent of trying too hard in a way that eventually becomes completely winning.

The Mood

A character-driven portrait of an isolated woman learning to connect. Funny, devastating, and achingly human in its careful observations.
