Just a note of thank you to the people who came over to Bellevue for wine tasting at the Cork N Crust. It is a very cute little (and busy) pizzeria with a laid back vibe and what a nice upstairs party room. The wine flights were well priced and the conversation was outstanding. Thanks!

This is one of the most unique Wine Shops in Cincinnati, and it has been in business for a long time. It has been described as like a home with rooms filled with rows of wine bottles. There is a large tasting area and an outside deck. Many people have recommended this to me as the best wine shop on the East Side, and perhaps, in the city. It is a 'must see it at least once' type of place.
There are a dozen 'Wine Stations' machines where you can get an auto pour and track what you drink on a provided card. For those who enjoy tasting different varieties, that will give you many choices. If you know what you like, you can purchase a bottle ( there is a $5 dollar corkage fee) and that is more economical than by the glass.
Usually this shop closes up at 6 PM, but Dave , the owner, will stay open until 9 PM on this evening to host our group.
Note:
Since they are staying past their normal hours, there will be no kitchen or food service. We are allowed to bring food and snacks.
