Champagne Cuvée Roger Daltrey

We have shown you metal bands such as Metallica and Opeth come up with their own signature beer in the past. As these offering are nothing less than a souvenir to metal fans, it has become a popular trend among various rock bands and artists   to launch their own signature booze. Taking this trend forward, the latest rockstar to join this league is Roger Daltrey, founder and frontman of the legendary British rock band The Who. Daltrey is launching his own limited edition Champagne to honor band’s 50th anniversary.

Champagne Cuvée Roger Daltrey

Christened Cuvée Roger Daltrey, the limited edition Champagne is produced by Champagne house Charles Orban, in village of Troissy. The Orban family has been growing grapes in Troissy, located on the left bank of the Marne, upstream from Dormans, since 1770. The bottle features band’s iconic red, blue and black bull’s-eye logo along with Daltrey’s signature. The bottle and label design is inspired from the Tommy album cover, band’s most popular album and Daltrey’s personal favorite as well.
