Widow Clicquot Star Haley Bennett And Wine Girl Author Victoria James
On today’s episode, it’s Haley Bennett, the star and a producer of the new film Widow Clicquot, which opens in theaters this Friday, July 19th. Widow Clicquot is the amazing and true story of Barbe-Nicole Clicquot Ponsardin, a.k.a. Madame Clicquot of the Veuve Clicquot champagne empire. The movie is based on The New York Times-bestselling biography by Tilar J. Mazzeo. Haley joins host Kerry Diamond to talk about what it was like portraying the trailblazing entrepreneur.
In the second half of the show, we’re re-airing our conversation from 2022 featuring another woman of wine, Victoria James, the author of the memoir Wine Girl. Victoria shares her path to becoming a sommelier, the obstacles she has faced, taking on the misogyny in the industry, and what her moving memoir is all about.
