Cricket legend Phil Tufnell - Episode 19

My guest today is cricketing legend, sports pundit and former King of the Jungle, Phil Tufnell. Now, you may well be thinking, 'what the hell is an ex-England cricketer and TV personality such as Phil doing on a wine podcast?'  But there is very good reason. Phil has recently launched his own collection of wines – aptly named Tuffers' Tipple, which are  available through Virgin Wines. Over a glass of his own English Bacchus, we talk about his memories of going on tour as an England cricket international, touring vineyards with some of the world's sporting greats, treating his  new wines like his children and how, despite travelling the world tasting wines, his favourite wine memory is right here in England. Tuffers' Tipple can be ordered for delivery direct to your door via virginwines.co.uk. To keep an eye on what else Phil is up to, follow him on Instagram @phil.tufnell and Twitter @Philtufnell.  You can read more of Phil's anecdotes about travelling the world with fellow cricket legends in his new book How Not to Be A Cricketer, which is out on October 28th. Thank you for listening to today’s episode of The English Wine Diaries.
