Everything from complete producer names and correct spellings to overall presentation are considered. If they are selected, restaurants are granted one of three awards – The Grand Award (“three glasses”), The Best of Award of Excellence (“two glasses”) or the Award of Excellence (“one glass”).
Gamal Aziz, president & COO of MGM Grand, said, “These awards are a true testament to the commitment and careful consideration we put into MGM Grand’s wine program. We are pleased to be a destination for wine lovers everywhere.”
