Career history
Matthew started his career in the wine industry in 1987 working with wine consultant James Rogers at the Barnes Wine Shop, London SW13. From there, Matthew moved into buying for Bibendum Restaurant & Oyster Bar, London SW3, winning awards for his wine list, and then into radio when journalism started to become his focus. After 3 years on a weekly radio slot for the BBC, Channel 4 approached Matthew to host 'Wine Hunt'. Matthew then went on to write 'The Wine Book' which was later serialised by the Daily Mail and due to the popularity of the book, Matthew was offered the chance to write the most widely read wine column in the UK in the Daily Mail's Weekend Magazine, with over 5 million readers each week.

In January 2012, Matthew Jukes was awarded the Honorary Australian of the Year Award by the Australia Day Foundation. It recognises a non Australian resident of the UK who displays "Australian characteristics" or has contributed significantly to Australia.
In May 2011, Off Licence News voted Matthew the most influential wine writer in the UK.

Matthew has also been approached about taking Touch Wine to South Africa, New Zealand and the UK in the next few years.
