Sir Ian Botham on his new ’Legends’ English wine with Sir Geoff Hurst

When it comes to British sporting greats they don’t get much bigger than Sir Ian Botham and Sir Geoff Hurst. True legends in their respective worlds of cricket and football. Which makes them the perfect partnership to launch a new wine together through Botham Family Wines and its new “Legends Series” brand. Together they have teamed up with English sparkling wine producer Balfour Winery to create the ‘Geoff Hurst Cuvée’ that looks to celebrate England’s World Cup victory in 1966 just as the current England football team look to do the same during the current World Cup. Here Sir Ian Botham explains what the “Legends Series” is all about and how the two “Sirs” got to work together on this new wine.
