A Dog Days of July wine-tastings extravaganza
In fact, loads of wine-tasting extravaganzas, all yours for nothing more than a click of the mouse, thanks to the Dayton-based wine listserv that compiles this amazing list and shares it with Uncorked, and to the wine shops, grocers and restaurants that host the events.
Among the many events that caught my eye: Juan and Nola Palomar of Veleta Wines are headed to Michael Anthony’s at The Inn in Versailles (937-526-3020) for a 6:30 p.m. event on Friday, July 23. Juan’s wines from his native Spain have always impressed me for their quality and value, so this event should be even more worthwhile than usual.
Also, check out the Jay’s tasting next Thursday (July 22) of the Champagnes of Duval-Leroy, paired with oysters, shrimp, crab and three kinds of caviar. Once again I ask, is there a better place to be for a wine lover than Dayton, Ohio, even during the dog days of summer? Read on before you answer …
