Matthew Clark has unveiled its 2018 wine list featuring a host of new additions.

Newcomers to the portfolio, which comprises more than 200 wines, include Spanish producer Marques de Riscal alongside wines of Stonier from the Mornington Peninsula in Australia and New Zealand and Argentinian wine producers, Leefield Station and Finca de Moras.

In addition, the drinks wholesaler has expanded its English wine range with the addition of Surrey winery, Denbies.

The list was the most “diverse and exciting” for Matthew Clark to date, said Andrew Shaw, group wine buying director.

Matthew Clark also revealed it had been named ‘French Merchant of the Year’ at the 2018 Sommelier Wine Awards following its spring wine release, picking up a total of 175 medals at the competition.

“We’re extremely proud of our award-winning French range, boasting award-winning wines from every corner of the country, and at every price point,” said Shaw.

For Matthew Clark’s range to be recognised by the very best sommelier and tasters in the UK as the best French wine portfolio was a testament to the “dedicated and hard-working suppliers, both large and small”, he added.

Last month, Matthew Clark’s new owner – C&C Group - announced it had appointed David Philips as managing director of the wholesaler.
