The Who are to give the first public tasting of their own brand of limited edition champagne ahead of their headline slot at the Isle of Wight Festival.

The bubbly, named Champagne Cuvee Roger Daltrey, has been produced by Eminent Life to toast the band’s 50th anniversary and will sell for £95 for a 75cl bottle.

A contribution from the sale will go towards the Teenage Cancer Trust.

Roger said: “I am very excited to have this opportunity to express my passion for champagne through this limited edition cuvee. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.”

A festival spokeswoman said: “This will be the first time the champagne has been tasted by anyone other than the winemaker and Roger Daltrey.”

Meanwhile, festival-goers partied through a few light rain showers during an afternoon that saw Busted and Everything Everything take to the main stage.
