Where can you find the finest wine-dinners-and-tastings list in all the land?
Usually, you can find the nation’s best wine tastings and events list every Friday on Uncorked, but today, we do a little cross-posting because so many local restaurants are getting involved with wine and offering special events and, well, because we CAN.
Pacchia joins the tidal wave that is the Dayton-area wine-tasting scene this weekend with a Sunday gig, Arrow Wine & Spirits Far Hills welcomes Warren County’s Valley Vineyards for its Saturday tasting, and Tina Nixon from Meranda-Nixon winery near Ripley, Ohio will be pouring Thursday of next week at Arrow Centerville (and her husband tonight at Little Sonoma). Those are just a few of the tasty nuggets you’ll glean as you feast your wine-savvy eyes on the best darn wine-tasting list in the land, which comes to Uncorked courtesy of the heroic efforts of the Dayton-based wine listserv that compiles it. Are we blessed or what?
One worthy event that didn’t make the list but which you need to know about: Mamma DiSalvo’s, 1375 E. Stroop Rd. in Kettering, will host a wine dinner on Thursday, May 21 at 6:30 pm … Bobby from Mamma DiSalvo’s will be serving Osso Bucco, and wine importer-distributor extraoardinaire Ardie Bonnano will be pouring four Italian wines. Call the restaurant for more details, 937-299-5831.
And one other question: Is there really an “Old Fart” wine and a “Sweaty Betty” beer? The things you learn from this wine-tasting list … Click on “continue reading” if the tastings and events list does not appear immediately below. And Cheers!

Is there anywhere in the SW Ohio region that sells products from the Dautermann Wineries in Germany? At a family reunion I had a Spätburgunder that I can’t get out of my mind.
