Amazing wine pairings arranged (12)
I believe the answer is:
aweinspiring
'amazing' is the definition.
Both the definition and answer are present participle verbs.
Maybe you can see a link between them that I don't see?
'wine pairings arranged' is the wordplay.
'arranged' indicates anagramming the letters (letters rearranged).
'wine'+'pairings'='winepairings'
'winepairings' with letters rearranged gives 'AWEINSPIRING'.
