This past Saturday afternoon, a line of people that flowed out onto North Beach Street waited patiently to enter the Nantucket Yacht Club for the first of the two Grand Tastings. More than 150 wineries from around the world poured their finest wines for the many wine lovers and connoisseurs. A special addition to the Wine Festival was The Crow's Nest where guests could enjoy a view of Nantucket Harbor from the second floor of the Yacht Club, fine cheeses from the Irish cheese company, Kerrygold, and delicious oysters from East Coast Shellfish Growers Association. It was a small respite from the crowds downstairs. Take a look at Plum's video and photo coverage of this event below, and stay tuned for more on the 11th Annual Nantucket Wine Festival.
