Enriching Wine Experiences With Atmosphere Core

Atmosphere Core elevates guests’ holiday experiences across its portfolio of three brands and eight resorts in the Maldives through Creative New Wine Events and vintages from its third exclusive wine partner, the Glenelly Estate.

Sun, sand, and sea with some exquisite vino. While wine may not be the first thing that springs to mind when you think of a Maldives getaway, Atmosphere Core is turning heads with their innovative approach to cultivating an authentic in-house wine culture.

Following inspiring in-resort events with Champagne Guy Charbaut in 2021 and 2022 and Bodegas Viñátigo in 2022, Atmosphere Core announces exclusive wine experiences across its portfolio of eight resorts and three brands. Woven into the holiday plans, sybarites can savour sublime terroir wines while basking in the sheer bliss of the Maldives' idyllic isles.

Free-flowing champagne and fine wine sets a celebratory note at THE OZEN COLLECTION. Now, wine lovers can challenge their palate with sophisticated weekly Blind Wine Tasting sessions, held at both OZEN RESERVE BOLIFUSHI and OZEN LIFE MAADHOO.

At VARU By Atmosphere, a part of the Atmosphere Hotels & Resorts brand, gourmet 'Moonshine Wine & Dine' experiences are hosted at the Charcoal restaurant on full moon nights. It is a symphony of flavours with a special wine for every culinary creation of the three-course dinner.

COLOURS OF OBLU brand adds an engaging, exuberant touch, for unforgettable memories with loved ones. OBLU SELECT Lobigili offers special Honeymoon Wine events. OBLU SELECT Sangeli goes beyond traditional wine pairings, inviting guests to relish their tipple with quirky fusion canapés featuring local dishes as toppings. The refreshing Wine Not?! events are organized every week. A variety of old and new world wines are presented during the weekly World-Wine Xperience held at La Promenade at OBLU Xperience Ailafushi.

Three Wine Partnerships Driven by Shared Values

Atmosphere Core has partnered with three family-owned wineries - Champagne Guy Charbaut, Bodegas Viñátigo, and the newest addition, Glenelly Estate. Each of their three wine partners were carefully chosen based on years of research and consideration of their authenticity, family-owned values, and unique expressive terroir wines that cannot be found elsewhere in the Maldives.

Owners and winemakers of Champagne Guy Charbaut and Bodegas Viñátigo travelled to THE OZEN COLLECTION resorts in 2022 for inspiring wine soirees and masterclasses. In early 2023, a team of frontline F&B professionals from Atmosphere Core were hosted at the Bodegas Viñátigo winery in Canary Islands for an immersive, week-long educational tour. They gained a true appreciation of the craft, evident through the sparkling, genuine guest interactions.
