Christmas Week wine tastings, in all their glory

Even in the midst of the chaos that is Christmas week, wine bars and retail shops — well, most of them, anyway — will impress us with fine wines this weekend and throughout the week. The following list of Dayton-area (and beyond) wine tastings, dinners and events comes to Uncorked via the heroic efforts of a Dayton-based wine listserv, for which we are thankful — VERY thankful.

Click on “continue reading” if the amazing list does not appear immediately below …

Wishing everyone the best of the season! Please call your favorite place to check on hours and tastings!
