MADE IN ITALY: BOTTEGA (PROSECCO) LANDS IN RESORTS IN THE MALDIVES

Agreement signed with “ATMOSPHERE CORE”, leading hospitality in the Indian Ocean.

Atmosphere Core, a leading Asian hospitality group, has announced a special collaboration with Bottega Winery.

This innovative partnership aims to give a new connotation to the hospitality sector of the Maldives, introducing new ways to approach the world of wine and appreciate it at its best. Bottega Gold Prosecco Doc and other wines from the portfolio of the Treviso winery will be supplied exclusively to the 9 refined resorts owned by Atmosphere Core in as many Maldivian atolls. The group also plans to open the first Bottega Prosecco Bar in South Asia. The concept, created by Sandro Bottega, is dedicated to exclusive locations, to make Italian cuisine known and appreciated throughout the world, paired with Prosecco and the best wines of our country. Commenting on the new partnership with Bottega, Atmosphere Core Group CEO Salil Panigrahi said: “We are committed to providing our guests with the best possible experiences and meticulously curating every dining experience within our resorts, offering authentic food and beverages of the highest quality. We want our guests to be able to return home with lifelong memories. We can only achieve this by partnering with the world’s most dynamic wine producers. The announcement of the partnership with Bottega SpA in 2025 is a milestone moment for our company. I would like to personally thank Mr Sandro Bottega for granting Atmosphere Core this opportunity that goes beyond the presence of his brands in our resorts, but also provides us with an exciting platform to explore new concepts in 360° hospitality.” To grow the wine culture, Atmosphere Core regularly hosts winemakers and winery owners at their resorts in the Maldives to conduct exclusive masterclasses and engaging for guests.

Sandro Bottega, President of Bottega SpA, commented: “I am proud to start a partnership with a prestigious group, such as Atmosphere Core. Our main goal is to bring Italian wine culture to South Asia. The Maldives is a luxury destination, which embraces the same values of quality and elegance of our flagship product: Bottega Gold Prosecco Doc. In addition, we hope to also introduce our Bottega 0 Rosé and Bianco. Both non-alcoholic, they offer the same ritual of consumption as sparkling wines, respecting teetotalers and all those who, for whatever reason, choose to be cautious in their alcohol consumption. Finally, I am excited about the opportunity to open a Prosecco Bar, which will represent a sort of embassy of Italian cuisine in the islands”.
