Sparkling wine
Pol Roger, Cuvée Sir Winston Churchill 2006
RRP £122
Curiously exotic, with ripe flavours of crystallised ginger, tropical citrus fruit and green mango. Generous in feel, it still maintains tension and focus. There’s a bitterness and austerity on the finish that modernists will love (and classicists will not). (Peter Liem)
