Jenny Eclair

THE TIMES
About this episode

Jenny Eclair, the trailblazing comedian, joins Anneka and Will for a tour of Greek wines (with a brief detour to Hungary). Will gives a surprising lesson in how the Ancient Greeks enjoyed wine, Anneka amusingly bemoans restaurant wine menu formats and Jenny rethinks her usual aversion to all things sweet as she sips a mouth watering dessert wine.
