Your best wine-tastings list for this weekend and beyond

What better day to have a “Big Red” wine tasting than Valentine’s Day? Check out what Arrow Wine’s Far Hills store is up to on Feb. 14. That’s just one of the hidden gems (I also have my eye on the Kinkead Ridge tasting this Saturday at Bruning’s Wine Shop in Beavercreek) nestled in this list of wine tastings, wine dinners, beer tastings and other special events that comes to us courtesy of a Dayton-based wine listserv. Read, attend, enjoy!
