Corney & Barrow sponsors rugby club

Published:  18 January, 2007

UK Corney & Barrow (C&B) will be the official wine supplier of Harlequins Rugby Club for the 2007/08 season.

The agreement means the independent wine merchant will exclusively supply all the wine in the bars and hospitality suites at the Twickenham Stoop.

John McBride, Harlequins catering manager, said: "It's a pleasure to deal with a traditional wine merchant who understands the customer's needs.

"Their wine list is extensive and allows me to tailor each menu that we produce to a wine that suits the specific products involved."

Oliver Hartley, C&B sales director, added: "This is a partnership between two like-minded companies with a commitment to excellence in their chosen field.

"We are proud to be associated with one of the world's top Rugby clubs and we very much look forward to the start of the season."
