Byrne & Co, wine merchants ex traordinaire, in King Street, has received three wine “Oscars” from the top professional bodies in the field of wine and spirits at the In ternational Wine Challenge. At a glittering awards ceremony
in the Hilton Hotel, Park Lane, London, before 700 guests from the UK and international winerirade, Philip Byrne accompanied by his wife Judith, received the award for Overall Champagne Specialist-of- the-Year for the whole country. This is the first time Byrne’s has won this particular'award so the whole family is over the moon. For the 12th time it was un

together with long-time assistant Simon Jackson work hard to sat isfy their customers from far and wide. To complete the family firm Philip’s wife Judith has the task of keeping the accounts. Philip said: “This country-wide
recognition is good for Clitheroe and will give a big boost to other local shops because people come from much further afield to find specialist Champagnes, wines and spirits for special occasions that they can’t find elsewhere at the reasonable prices we charge”. Byrne’s have certainly put Clit
