Tasting Room Wine Merchants in Bath (Somerset - South West England)
Tasting Room is first and foremost a wine & spirit merchant with a first floor wine-bar and cafe serving a great array of specialist wines and spirits along with a modern Mediterranean style menu to complement.
Customers can select from a broad, carefully selected wine-list chosen from the wines that are imported direct from the producers-an ever changing wine list with all wines available from their ground floor shop to take home. Wines are available to consume by the glass, carafe and bottle, as well as beer, cider, cocktails, pudding wines, port or just coffee.
An extensive whisky list offers whiskies from around the world, concentrating on Independent and unusual bottlings with a focus on Scotland, Japan and USA.
The Bar /café serves modern Mediterranean tapas style dishes, sharing boards, artisan cheese, as well as daily specials to complement the drinks using the best well sourced ingredients.
Their aim is to create a convivial atmosphere in which to serve high quality, characterful wines and imaginative food created from fresh, seasonal produce.
An important distinction of Tasting Room is the option to take wine home with you, hence our Wine Shop where nearly 300 wines are available to buy at highly competitive retail prices. You can also buy any of their wines online, with delivery available throughout mainland UK.
In the summer months make full use of their secluded terrace with a glass of wine, coffee or cocktail, or just unwind from a long day exploring Bath’s beautiful sights.

Dorchester, Historic Market town in Dorset, England ( 14 )
Dorchester is the county town of Dorset, England. A historic market town, Dorchester lies on the banks of the River Frome, in the Frome Valley, just south of the Dorset Downs and north of the South Dorset Ridgeway, that separates the area from Weymouth, eight miles ( 13 km ) south. Dorchester is noted as being home and inspiration to the author Thomas Hardy, whose novel The Mayor of Casterbridge was based on the town.
In 1613 and 1725 great fires destroyed large parts of the town, but some of the mediaeval buildings, including Judge Jeffrey's lodgings, and the Tudor almshouse survives in the town centre, amongst the replacement Georgian buildings, many of which are built in Portland limestone. In the 17th century the town was at the centre of the Puritan emigration to America, and the local rector, John White, organised the settlement of Dorchester, Massachusetts. For his efforts on behalf of Puritan dissenters, White has been called the unheralded founder of the Massachusetts Bay Colony. In 1642, just before the English Civil War, Hugh Green, a Catholic chaplain was executed here. After his execution, Puritans played football with his head. The town was heavily defended against the Royalists in the Civil War. In 1685 the Duke of Monmouth failed in his invasion attempt, the Monmouth Rebellion, and almost 300 of his men were condemned to death or transportation in the ~ Bloody Assizes, held in the Oak Room of the Antelope Hotel, Dorchester and presided over by Judge Jeffrey's. In 1833, the Tolpuddle Martyrs formed the Friendly Society of Agricultural Labourers. Trade unions were legal, but due to them swearing an oath of allegiance, they were arrested and tried in the Shire Hall in Dorchester. This building still remains and is preserved as it was at the time. Under the court are the cells where the prisoners were held while waiting for their court appearance. Dorchester Prison was constructed in the town during the 19th century and the prison is still in use today, holding convicted and remanded inmates from the local courts.
Poundbury is the well - known western extension of the town, constructed on Duchy of Cornwall land ( owned by Charles, Prince of Wales ) according to urban village principles since 1993. Being developed over 25 years, it will eventually be composed of four phases with a total of 2,500 dwellings and a population of about 6,000. Since 2008, Poundbury is now home to Dorset Fire and Rescue Service headquarters and Dorchester fire station. Prince Charles designed the estate ( as well as the local Tesco supermarket ) and makes several visits throughout the year. The catchment area extends eight miles west, north and east of the town, and two miles south. Brewery Square is a new development in the heart of the town, and is planned to include a multitude of retail outlets, residential units, bars, restaurants and various cultural facilities, plus the regeneration of Dorchester South station to make it the UK's first solar powered rail station.
This remaining Duchy land was farmed under the open field system until 1874 when the land was enclosed - or consolidated - into three large farms by the landowners and residents. Soon afterwards followed a series of key developments for the town: the enclosing of Poundbury hill fort for public enjoyment in 1876, the ~ Fair Field ( new site for the market, off Weymouth Avenue ) in 1877, the Recreation Ground ( also off Weymouth Avenue ) opening in 1880, and the imposing Eldridge Pope Brewery of 1881, adjacent to the railway line to Southampton. Salisbury Field was retained for public use in 1892, with land being purchased in 1895 for the formal Borough Gardens, between West Walks and Cornwall Road. The clock and bandstand were added in 1898. Meanwhile, land had begun to be developed for housing outside the walls. This included the Cornwall Estate, between the Borough Gardens and the Great Western Railway, from 1876 and the Prince of Wales Estate, centred on Prince of Wales Road, from 1880. Land for the Victoria Park Estate was bought in 1896 and building began in 1897, Queen Victoria's Diamond Jubilee year. The lime trees in Queen's Avenue were planted in February 1897.

One-man Band with Talent - in BRIDPORT -
The thing about one-man bands is 'THEY make an awful row' and the astonishing thing is that they carry so many instruments. Mr Chuckledroop is no exception. It was a very hot day - people were relaxing in the sunshine. Anything to distract them from the heat was going to be good - maybe he had TALENT.
Energy Cafe at Powerstock Common
On an extremely fine April day, the Energy Cafe was towed into the woods at Powerstock Common, West Dorset by Karl Edwards' majestic heavy horses. It was an event to publicise the campaign to open the old Maiden Newton to Bridport railway track as a Sustrans trail. The cafe as you will discover when you watch this video is designed to work off-grid as it needs no mains electricity or even bottled gas to operate. Food is sourced and foraged from within a 6 mile radius of the location of the cafe. It was designed as a collective effort at a gathering at Gunpowder Park in the Lee Valley in Essex but is now being further developed as a demonstration project by Amy Plant and Ella Gibbs. This Transition Vision video is the second featuring the Maiden Newton to Bridport trailway initiative: the first being a performance of Phil Minton's Feral Choir. Shot and edited by John and Sue Holman.

READ MORE ABOUT THE FILM
Conker Spirit produce Dorset Dry Gin and are Dorset’s first Gin distillery.
Not wanting to produce for the mass market in the same way their competitors do, compromise the quality of Dorset Dry Gin or dilute the Conker brand, Rupert Hollway truly represents the spirit of the independent entrepreneur.
Located in a warehouse on a back street in Southbourne, a suberb of Bournemouth, Conker Spirit produces its Dorset Dry Gin. Made from locally sourced botanicals, distilled in two small copper stills and hand bottled, each batch is individually signed and numbered by Rupert himself.
Sick of his nine to five and not having smiled in his job for the last ten years! Rupert Holloway decided to start Conker Spirit, Dorset’s first Gin Distillery.
Currently selling across Dorset, the South and South West of England, you can find Dorset Dry Gin in various Deli’s, Bars, Hotels or at one of the many pop-up events the team at Conker Spirit attend or even online.

Fortune-telling mole charms Dorset Art Weeks 2014
Two artists, one studio, and lots of extraordinary things appear in this video made for Dorset Art Weeks 2014, on this year from Saturday, May 24 to Sunday, June 8. What sort of things? A fortune-telling mole, a depressed albino mole, a frenetic painting squirrel, a life-sized hero made out of cement... The artists are Katarina Rose and Lisa Lindqvist; the studio is an old blacksmith's forge in the village of Litton Cheney, just off the A35 in West Dorset.
There are just over 1,000 artists taking part in Dorset Art Weeks 2014. It's the UK's greatest free festival of visual art. It gives people chance to go to places they might never normally go: not just physical spaces - huts, homes, studios, galleries, halls, courtyards, gardens, cafes, a castle and a friary and a school - but also into the realms of the imagination. Pick up a brochure, browse the Dorset Art Weeks website ( ) and look out for the famous red and yellow signs that dot roadsides and properties across the county.
Thanks to our main sponsor - Sculpture by the Lakes - and to all our other sponsors: the solicitors and arbitrators Humphries Kirk, the media company Archant, Watershed PR of Bridport (who made this video), Dorchester Nissan (whose Nissan Leaf you can see at the end of this video driving up Abbotsbury Hill), the brewers and pub-owners Hall & Woodhouse, Dorset Magazine, Yalbury Cottage and Arts University Bournemouth.
We look forward to seeing you at lots of Dorset Art Weeks venues and events!
Ted Baker of Last Drop Wine Shop in London
TED BAKER OF LAST DROP WINE SHOP IN LONDON
- Classification: Beer, Wine and Spirit (Retail)
- Business Description: A small friendly wine shop with very knowledgeable staff.
- Address: 492 Kings Road, West Brompton, London, SW10 0LE
- Shop opening times: Monday to Saturday 10am-7pm
- Web: lastdropwines.com
The principal advantages of buying wine form an independent wine merchant is the knowledgeable staff, in this case the owner Ted Baker an enthusiastic and passionate man.
Also this shop offers a range of wines the bigger players cannot. We're not simply talking about the number of wines stocked; we're talking about the mixture of small-scale, of-the-beaten track, artisan producers alongside low-volume, super-medium classics from those well established and well-earned reputations.
I highly recommend strike up a relationship with Ted Baker, the more information that you can give to him about what you like to drink the best - including price, variety, country, style, loves and hates - the closer he likely will find you something that really stacks up, and so the road to better drinking begins.

Traditional blues song... my favourite blues song of all time. Performed on the 22nd September 2008 at Number 10 Bar, Bridport Dorset, England, with additional dubs using my mother's piano a couple of days after the gig.
