I Drank Churchill's

My palate was very fortunate to have tasted Pol Roger Champagne where its long-standing fame dated back to - believe it or not - Sir Winston Churchill days.


Pol Roger's Champagne had been Churchill's lifelong favourite and he famously borrowed a slogan of Napoleon's to describe his passion for this supremely invigorating champagne:

"In defeat I need it, in victory I deserve it".

I understand him totally as that's what I do too:  

In hunger I eat, in sadness I eat, in happiness I...eat!

Life goes on.  

Bon appétit !
