- SANDRO BOTTEGA OFFICIALLY OPENS THE NEW BOTTEGA LOUNGE IN SEOUL
- The owner and Managing Director of the Italian winery and distillery Bottega attended the official inaugural event of the exclusive venue, opened since February in collaboration with the local partner.
Over the past three months, the Bottega Lounge has performed very well, recording excellent commercial results. Bottega Gold, the Prosecco DOC in the iconic gilded bottle, has win the hearts of the regular customers, who now prefer it to the Champagne. The Bottega Lounge is also a means for Seoul people to get acquainted with the Italian food, that to date is still little known, compared to local cuisine, and to other Asian, American and French cuisines.
The glamorous venue is located in Gangnam-Gu, the high-class quarter of the South Korean capital, which has been chosen as a film set for numerous films. This area, the city's financial district, also hosts boutiques and stores of the most renowned international brands. Gangnam-Gu, known for its widespread wealth and high level of well-being, is often compared by Koreans to universally famous neighborhoods such as Beverly Hills. The most significant indicator is the value of properties, which are more than twice the average cost of a house in Seoul.
The presence of a prominent Bottega Lounge in this context helps to strengthen the image and the fame of the company throughout the Asian country. The lounge offers the opportunity to taste a selection of Italian Prosecco, Amarone della Valpolicella, Brunello di Montalcino, grappa and liqueurs.
