Male’, Maldives, 29 August 2024 – In a celebration where the art of winemaking meets the charm of Maldivian island living, THE OZEN COLLECTION is set to enchant wine enthusiasts with a series of exclusive masterclasses featuring Bodegas Viñátigo’s finest vintages. From November 18th to 20th at OZEN LIFE MAADHOO and from November 22nd to 24th at OZEN RESERVE BOLIFUSHI, guests will embark on a sensory journey guided by the esteemed Juan Mendez and his son, Jorge Mendez.
These extraordinary masterclasses promise to immerse participants in the unique world of Bodegas Viñátigo, renowned for its naturally distinctive wines sourced from Tenerife’s ancient, ungrafted vines. Attendees will savor the rich tapestry of Tenerife’s terroir through selections like the crisp Viñátigo Listán Blanco and the bold Viñátigo Tintilla, each glass a tribute to the rugged volcanic landscape of the Canary Islands.
Set against the stunning backdrops of jewel-toned lagoons and palm-fringed bars, the masterclasses will offer insights into the subtle characteristics and sustainable practices that define Bodegas Viñátigo’s winemaking. Expert sommeliers from the resorts will guide guests in identifying nuanced flavors and perfect pairings, enriching their understanding of these exceptional wines.
Nicolas Laguette, Director of Wines at Atmosphere Core, expressed his enthusiasm: “We are thrilled to host the third iteration of Bodegas Viñátigo Masterclasses at our luxury resorts. Our commitment to curating a unique wine experience has led us to bring the best of Canary Wine to the Maldives, and this November, we are honored to welcome the Mendez family to share their passion and expertise.”
For those unable to attend the November events, OZEN LIFE MAADHOO and OZEN RESERVE BOLIFUSHI continue to offer exquisite wine experiences throughout the year as part of their RESERVE™ and INDULGENCE™ Plans, featuring exceptional vintages from Bodegas Viñátigo.
As you sip and savor, let the poetry of Spanish wine transport you to the volcanic slopes of Tenerife, all while surrounded by the breathtaking beauty of the Maldives.
