Featured Cincinnati Wine Events: Dec 12-18

Hello there! If you are new here, you might want to subscribe to the RSS feed for updates on this topic.

If you’re free tonite, I’ll be helping out over at Water Tower Fine Wines and pouring Blends and Meritages. I’d love it if you dropped by to say hello!

Pay attention to your local wine shop. Some of the shops, such as Dep’s Fine Wine & Spirits, Uncorked at the Art of Entertaining, and Jungle Jim’s are either wrapping up their weekly tastings for the year or have already stopped until January. Because of this, a lot of the yearly tastings are slowing down. After all, you’re spending all your time at holiday parties instead!

Fountain Square at Christmas, 2008

I list Little Sonoma (West Chester) as a regular tasting, but each weekend through December, they’re offering some great holiday themed tastings, including sparklers and gift wines. You’ll definitely want to check them out. Additionally, The Party Source really pulls out all the stops with end of year classes between now and Christmas, so try to take in a class or two this December.

Remember, all the recurring events, those dependable weekly tastings, are displayed on our calendar. The one-time events are after the jump.

For information on what’s going on in Dayton, you can refer to Mark’s blog at Uncorked.
