Since its inception in 2021, Atmosphere Core's Wine Program has been transforming the wine and champagne experience for travelers in the Maldives. Moving beyond merely offering premium brands on the beverage menu, this initiative focuses on building partnerships and fostering genuine connections between guests and selected wineries.
Atmosphere Core proudly unveils its 2024 calendar, featuring 16 in-market wine events across 7 countries, running from March through mid-September. These events will be held in Madrid and Valencia (Spain), Prague (Czech Republic), Frankfurt, Hamburg, and Munich (Germany), Milan (Italy), Tokyo (Japan), London (United Kingdom), and Vienna (Austria).
The series will spotlight the company’s three brands – THE OZEN COLLECTION, COLOURS OF OBLU, and Atmosphere Hotels & Resorts. A standout event is THE OZEN COLLECTION Champagne Experience at the Westphalia Stadium (also Signal Iduna Park) in Dortmund, Germany, scheduled for September 2024.
These authentic ‘Wine and Dine’ experiences will bring the distinctive ambiance of the resorts to travel partners and top-tier media. Attendees will indulge in vintages from four terroir wineries – Champagne Guy Charbaut (Mareuil-sur-Ay), Bodegas Viñátigo (Canary Islands), Glenelly Estate (Stellenbosch), and Martín Códax (Rías Baixas) – exclusively poured in the Maldives with Atmosphere Core.
Hosted by Nicolas Laguette, Atmosphere Core’s Director of Wine, these events will feature senior sales and communication executives from the company, alongside representatives from esteemed wine partners. The setting encourages engaging conversations and storytelling, allowing participants to delve into the philosophy behind the unique wine program.
Atmosphere Core has partnered with three generational family-owned wineries – Champagne Guy Charbaut, Bodegas Viñátigo, and Glenelly Estate – complemented by Martín Códax, a renowned wine cooperative. Each partner winery was selected for their authenticity, family-driven values, and unique expressive terroir wines.
These wine partners reciprocate the hospitality by hosting resort teams at their vineyards and conducting masterclasses. Each bottle carries its own captivating story, shared by the sommelier, who has personally explored the distant lands from which these exceptional wines originate. Wine enthusiasts and global travelers can anticipate an array of enriching wine-related adventures throughout the year.
