WWA Welcomes Bottle Apostle

Thursday, 19 November, 2009 by ZoeT  

World Wine Agencies welcomes Bottle Apostle our most exclusive independent retail specialist.
Bottle Apostle was opened in Mid July 2009, by owner Andrew Eakins and General Manager Tom Jarvis. Bottle Apostle wine shop in Hackney features self-service wine sampling, wine tasting events and excellent wine purchasing advice. They aim to make buying outstanding wine fun and easy.
Tom Jarvis has over a decades worth of experience of the specialist wine trade and also with the advantage of working within the wine education sector. This was where Andrew, who whilst attending a tasting of Tom’s approached him to set up their working partnership, and hence Bottle Apostle was launched earlier this year.
We first met Tom at the Washington & Oregon Tasting back and January and he was very impressed with the Powers and Badger Mountain range. They have since taken on this range to sell in the shop along with various other exclusive wines from the WWA portfolio.
Business is now booming for the boys, with various open days planned, the launch of a website and plans to expand outside the immediate vicinity of Victoria Park Village. We wish them every success and a long working relationship with WWA.

Every month we will feature news and information from our customers, remember to keep us posted on any updates or interesting developments!!!!

  1. It’s been a pleasure working with Tom and Andrew on the development of Bottle Apostle. The store is really a fantastic place to buy wine – Tom Jarvis is exceptionally knowledgeable and down-to-earth. Their new website launched today http://www.bottleapostle.com – It’d be great if you could include a link to it from your news post.
