Tom came dangerously close to working in wine on two occasions. First, there were a few steps in the wine trade, pouring and selling, and then later a close call with a chalky, south-facing slope in Kent. As it happened, he found his home at the piano as a performer, composer, and educator in the realms of jazz and contemporary music. Two joyfully unpredictable fields seemed better than one, though, so he now writes about sparkling wine at sixatmospheres.co.uk, also having featured at timatkin.com, Falstaff, The Buyer, and The Drinks Business. He is currently preparing the largest ever single report on English wine for timatkin.com, due for publication in autumn 2021.
