The Complete Binissalem Travel Guide

binissalem

Imbibe in Binissalem. It is a culture unto itself. Drink it in. It’s the Matryoshka doll of history and culture. It is Spanish; it is Mallorcan; it is Binissalem. It is Talaiotic, Roman, and Moorish. It was once the very heart of European wine production. It is now at the heart of Mallorca’s wine production […]

The Complete Santa Maria del Camí Travel Guide

santa maria del cami

I was excited to write this guide to Santa Maria del Camí. It’s the place I’ve called home for going on a decade now. Quaint and picturesque yet easily accessible, this authentic Mallorcan village bordered by vineyards and backdropped by mountains is the perfect place to take a step back and appreciate the best of […]

Son Prim CUP Review

son prim cup

With a lack of consistent rain, it baffles how bursting with color and fauna Mallorca is. The red Mallorcan earth, dense and claylike, must learn, like the cacti it bores, to retain water. The flowers, fruit trees, and grape vines must dig deep to earn their drink. In the process, they also find compressed minerals […]

Ànima Negra AN/2 Review

anima negra an/2

If you like fine dining in Mallorca, you’re sure to see bottles from the renowned Ànima Negra winery. One of the island’s most well-known and most active producers, their wine is regularly rated as some of the best in the Balearics and the world. Ànima Negra AN/2 is one such wine, sure to pack the […]

Winery Spotlight: Jaume de Puntiró

jaume de puntiro

Jaume de Puntiró embodies the spirit of local Mallorcan viticulture. Not only do they produce phenomenal organic wine that earns the D.O. Binissalem label, but they are active participants in events that promote and preserve Mallorcan culture. From bike tours to stopping by the bodega to fill your bottle with vi granell straight from the […]

Winery Spotlight: Biniagual

Finca Biniagual

For thousands of years, wine, olives, and grain have thrived upon the soil of Biniagual; thus, at its bodega, you can taste history. The history of wine, of course, but also of a 13th-century hamlet, predated by the Moors, abandoned come plagues, and resurrected due to its undeniable productivity. The experience of a tasting at […]

Mortitx Blanc Review

mortitx blanc

Wine fairs abound from spring to fall in Mallorca, and Raïm Fest in Deià was spectacular. So spectacular, in fact, that the public officials of Deià swore never to have such an event again. The small, cliffside town overflowed with wine drinkers, music, and too much traffic for the narrow village to handle.  Up a steep hill […]

Sabastià Pastor Brodat Review

sebastia pastor brodat

Imagine sipping wine midday on the outdoor patio of an exceptionally affordable Michelin Star restaurant while all colors of flowers burst forth with springtime vigor below the stunning Tramuntana Mountain Range. The wine is Sebastià Pastor Brodat 2017. It is the least expensive on the list and the server’s recommendation. Why visit Mallorca? For experiences […]

Mesquida Mora Sincronia Negre Review

mesquida mora sincronia negre

Mallorcan wine is a tradition dating back thousands of years. Rare is it to find a wine that encapsulates this tradition in a single bottle. That’s what I found when I took my first sip of Mesquida Mora Sincronia Negre: a delicious red from the Pla i Llevant region worthy of a high rating and […]

Winery Spotlight: Macià Batle

Riding by train from Palma toward Mallorca’s wine country gives me that blissful feeling of travel and exploration. An exploration of Mallorca beyond the calas, cliffs, and turquoise waters (not that there is anything wrong with these) and into the residential Mallorca of agriculture, small towns, local restaurants, and wineries, lots of wineries. One of […]
