The on.Core magazine of the Atmosphere Hotels & Resorts Group includes an extensive report on the recent visit to Bodegas Viñatigo (Tenerife) of half a dozen of its wine experts led by Nicolás Laguette, its wine consultant at the OZEN COLLECTION in Maldives
Our director Juan Jesús Méndez and his son, also winemaker Jorge Méndez, fourth and fifth generation of our winery, hosted a fascinating one-week tour to experience first-hand the meaning and philosophy of the Bodegas Viñátigo project based on in respect for the environment and the production of wines from autochthonous grape varieties, free of phylloxera and grown in volcanic soils.
The agenda of the Ozen Collection group expedition to our winery consisted of visits to our vineyards, to observe the methods of conduction and cultivation, the different varieties and the production processes in the winery. There were several tastings of the different Viñátigo elaborations.
A few opinions published by our visitors in the report in the on.Core magazine to which we refer in this post serve as an example.
Hello from the Canary Islands, I'm in Tenerife! We are here on this incredible wine journey with this scenic beauty around us. These wines are not an industrial product, they are very boutique elaborations with which we are going to enhance our OZEN COLLECTION.

As a beverage professional, I am standing in front of a solera from 1697. This Canarian Wines experience is an amazing experience of a lifetime. Lifestyle of this place, the uniqueness, the people and what they love to do. A moment of goosebumps. Thank you very much Nicolás and AH&R Wines!

The commitment of the OZEN COLLECTION to Bodegas Viñátigo is not accidental.
The group's bet in recent times has been to generate a true wine culture that distances them from other resorts that only see wine as a commercial product.
They have spent years researching each of the best international wineries that, due to their authenticity, family and environmental values and their expressive terroir-friendly wines, cannot be found anywhere else in the Maldives today.
That is why in mid-November our winery carried out various promotional and training actions at the OZEN LIFE MAADHOO and OZEN RESERVE BOLIFUSHI Resorts in the Maldives, framed within the framework of collaborations and relations between Viñátigo and the tourism business group Atmosphere Hotels & Resorts.
The growing international position of Víñátigo, in the most select markets, allows Viñátigo in particular and Canary Wines in general to be widely displayed by exclusive clients, which favors recovery of the world prestige that Canarian wines had centuries ago and that should never have declined.
