Tom is a well-known wine communicator and drinks trade professional. An in-demand live presenter on television and other media, he is the author of How to Drink Wine.
In his near-decade long media career to date, Tom has increasingly become regarded as one of the industry’s best and most-engaging live performers. Tom was shortlisted for the IWSC Wine Communicator Of The Year Award in both 2023 & 2025. He has a signature bright, playful charisma and warm sense of humour.
Tom specialises in wine, but has a wealth of experience across all drinks categories. He is one of the UK’s leading communicators on the No & Low Alcohol category, as well as food and the hospitality trade itself.
Tom has carved out a unique space; an upbeat, high energy, authentically passionate, experienced and reliable presenter. Humorous and personable without tipping into hyperbole or pastiche. He has a natural ability to connect with his audience, whether delighting and entertaining consumers or professional peers in the trade.
While he has a strong technical knowledge and training, as well as ability to taste to a very high degree, Tom is not ‘a critic’ by style. He is known as a lover of great drinks, an ambassador for the industry and the people within it, promoting the benefits and love for great food and drink.
