26 wineries will pour at Vintage Ohio

Before we let you know what’s happening around here this weekend, let’s take a look at what’s happening on the other side of the state next weekend.

The event is called Vintage Ohio, and it enters its 14th year this year. That link will tell you a bunch of what you need to know about the festival, which organizers call “the most acclaimed summer wine and food festival between the Appalachians and Rockies.” (Hmmm. Still contemplating that.)

Anyway, Vintage Ohio will be held Aug. 1 and Aug. 2 (1 p.m. to 10 p.m. both days) at Lake Metroparks Farmpark in Kirtland, Lake County, OH, east of Cleveland. Tickets are $22 in advance, $25 at the gate, with two-day taster tickets $40. They’re available on the web from the Ohio Wine Producers Association or by calling 800-227-6972.

Head north and see what Ohio wines are all about — next weekend. But this weekend, take a look at what’s happening right here in the Miami Valley, courtesy of the Dayton-based wine listserv that compiles the following tastings and events list:

'Quantum of Solace'[movies]

Men have curious ways of getting over a romantic betrayal. Some try avoidance. Some go on the rebound. James Bond's method, as seen in "Quantum of Solace," involves shooting, ducking, running, bleeding, locking dudes in car trunks and the massive destruction of parts of Italy and Bolivia. Obviously Daniel Craig is back as the shoot first, drink cocktails later version of 007 in the follow-up to 2006's "Casino Royale". More »

Amelia's Bistro, Bellbrook, restaurant review [review]

Call it comfort food, gourmet style. From crab raviolis with vanilla lobster sauce, to a hand-cut and brined pork chop served with a fig jam, to a simply "Big-Ass Cake" that's a chocolate lover's dream, Amelia's has the potential to become a destination restaurant — worth the drive to Bellbrook.
