Eleanor began her wine career at 21 years old in Miami, FL.  After working at a wine bar and taking a course on wine at her local college, she decided to make the move into a full-time wine career.  She moved to Oregon in 2016 to pursue this, applying for harvest positions for the 2016 Harvest in Oregon.  She was hired by a small winery in the Willamette Valley: Et Fille Wines.  She went on to work for them for 4 years, both in production and managing the tasting room and wine club.

She returned to her home-town of Minneapolis and began with Rootstock March 2020.  She hopes to continue her wine career in her home state and help raise Minnesotan’s passion and awareness of great wines.
