Featured Cincinnati Wine Events: Dec 5 – 11

It’s that time of year when I’m starting to receive New Year’s Eve listings in addition to the regular and fantastic tastings that Cincinnati always offers, so make sure to start regularly checking the calendar for listings of classy dinners and wine tastings. I’ll do a more complete post closer to the date.

Additionally, don’t forget to leave a comment on the Contest post. You could win a new screener copy of Mondo Vino the Series.

On to the wine tastings!  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.
