Why you want to do a wine tasting on Mallorca?

Worldwide, Spain is the third largest wine producer.

In terms of vineyard area, however, it’s actually the world’s largest wine country, home to a stunning array of landscapes and flavours. Spain boasts over 60 regions with a quality guarantee, a Denominación de Origen, or D.O.

The Rioja region was awarded the first D.O. status in 1925, paving the way for the Spanish wine industry’s global acclaim. Yet, long before the D.O. system came into existence, the wines of Mallorca were already celebrated in ancient Rome. The philosopher and wine enthusiast Pliny the Elder praised Mallorquin wines so highly that they quickly became one of Rome’s favourite imports.

Today, Mallorca is booming—not just as a top destination for sun worshippers and culture lovers but also for wine enthusiasts seeking a vinicultural vacation. The island’s wine landscape is thriving, with a growing number of boutique wineries and a commitment to quality that makes it perfect for a relaxing, wine-oriented getaway. 

 Over the past 40 years, Mallorca’s winemakers have replanted vineyards and focused on two key elements: quality and a blend of indigenous grapes like Prensal Blanc and Callet with international varieties like Chardonnay and Syrah. This careful balance has led to the establishment of two D.O.s in Mallorca: Binissalem and Plà i Llevant.

Whether savouring a crisp Prensal Blanc with its notes of green apple and citrus or a deep, earthy Callet with hints of dark berries and spice, every sip of Mallorcan wine tells a story of tradition, innovation, and passion.
