Indulge in Elegance: Nova Maldives Presents Exquisite Gourmet Tasting Dinner with World-Renowned Taittinger Champagne

London, UK, 21 August 2024: Ever dreamt of indulging in Champagne tasting while surrounded by an idyllic Maldivian island paradise? Save the date for 15th November as Nova Maldives will be hosting an exclusive dinner in collaboration with the renowned Maison Taittinger. The soulful, all-natural island resort will invite guests to discover the nuances of Taittinger Champagne, one of the last large independent, family-owned Champagne Houses, over a beautifully curated dinner.

Unearthed by Pierre Taittinger during the First World War, Taittinger Champagne spans an impressive 228 hectares of vineyards nestled between the Côte des Blancs, the Vallée de la Marne and the Montagne de Reims. Celebrated for its elegance and prestige, Taittinger’s Champagne harmoniously complements the serene allure of Nova, promising an unforgettable evening of sophistication and luxury.

Set against a breathtaking backdrop of the South Ari Atoll, the evening will commence with a welcome glass of Taittinger Brut Réserve and a selection of delectable gourmet canapés. Following the welcome reception, guests will be escorted to an elegant dining area on the white sands, where a lavish five-course dinner awaits. Here, guests will indulge in a delightful five-course Champagne dining experience, meticulously paired with Taittinger’s finest vintages. Each dish is thoughtfully crafted to incorporate local produce while showcasing the versatility of Taittinger’s Champagne, while guests admire the Maldivian sunset casting its golden glow over the azure waters.

A culinary journey set to impress, guests can expect a selection of exquisite dishes from Gruyère and Parmesan soufflé, charcuterie, shellfish risotto, local and sustainably caught fish, chocolate mousse cake or red fruit pavlova. Each course is perfectly complemented by hand-selected Taittinger champagnes, including Brut Millésimé, Brut Prestige Rosé, Prélude Grands Crus, Comtes De Champagne Blanc De Blancs Brut, and Nocturne Sec Rosé.

A haven of serenity, marine life and extraordinary adventures, Nova offers rejuvenating overwater spa treatments, year-round whale shark and manta snorkelling, wellness activities and rich local cultural experiences in its secluded contemporary community-focused island resort.

“I am incredibly proud to announce our collaboration with the prestigious Maison Taittinger for this exclusive gourmet tasting dinner. The renowned champagne house’s commitment to excellence and sustainability aligns perfectly with Nova’s own values. We look forward to paring Nova’s culinary excellence with Taittinger’s champagne expertise, creating an unforgettable experience for our guests. Hosting this unique event in our serene island hideaway is a true honour, and we are excited to welcome our guests to indulge in elegance and sophistication amidst the natural beauty of the Maldives,” says Abdulla Aboobakuru, General Manger Nova Maldives.

Join Nova for this remarkable opportunity to immerse yourself in the world of Taittinger Champagne while savouring culinary delights amidst Nova’s tranquil island paradise.
