Spinner & Bergamot, Cheshire, UK

The Spinner & Bergamot (named after 2 famous racehorses) is a typical Cheshire country pub retaining all of the traditional qualities you would expect to find. Along with roaring real log fires unbelievably there is also an extremely popular championship bowling green at the back which is a wonderful backdrop on a “balmy” summer evening.

The By The Glass system has been installed on the back bar of the pub and is unmissable when you first walk in. This gives the pub a visually striking display of wines and has already become a major talking point for visitors old and new.

The system installed is an 8-bottle, with attached dynamic cooling engine on the left hand side. Currently it has been set up to offer 4 red and 4 white wines. Owner Robert Southerton and his team are offering small tasting measures from the system for visitors to try out the new range of wines, as well as more standard 100ml and 125ml servings. This allows guests to try a variety of wines during their stay in the pub but also means that different dishes can be matched with different wines on the list.
