The Golden Nugget is one of the several casinos in Atlantic City, New Jersey. It’s one of a handful of casinos located in the Marina district at 600 Huron Avenue which is about a half mile off the famous boardwalk.
This event began a few years ago as the Ital-Cal wine festival which featured Italian wines and California wines from wineries with an Italian heritage.
It was a great concept but probably not sustainable, so they broaden the event to include other wine producing countries. I’ve attending the event several times in the past and this was my first time back in a few years.
On August 22nd I attended this year’s event which was held outdoors and billed as a “wine & jazz reception under the stars”.
This was not a professional wine tasting event but an experience for wine drinking consumers to broaden their horizons with the opportunity to sample an international selection of wines that they might not normally have the opportunity to try.
It was an enjoyable event of drinking wine on a beautiful Summer evening while listening to some live jazz
