THEATRICAL VISITS TO THE CELLARS

I com que el vi és cultura, la cultura sempre acompanya al vi! Quina forma millor hi ha de visitar un celler i tastar un vi, que fer-ho de la ma de Myotgragus Teatre. La companyia ens va summergir en la història de la família Pastor-Moyà del Celler Sebastià Pastor a Santa Maria del Camí i de la Finca Biniagual al llogaret que duu aquest nom, una història teatralitzada adaptada a cada espai i un tast d’allò més “beneït”. Un públic entregat es va divertir de valent, cantant i prenent la “comunió” amb”vi i quelitas” (typical salted biscuit of Mallorca).

Without forgetting the “Improvised stories” offered by Can Fumat with the company “Olvidalotodo” (Diego Ingold, Carito Delgado and Lalo Garau). Funny and creative stories that will tour the space where the old dovecote is located, the old cellar and the end, with a crazy story, in the new cellar. Lots of laughs and stories of convents, prisoners and whales…

Videoclip “The blood” by Sion Capçana for DO Binissalem. the poet recites from the heart the values ​​that define the DO Binissalem.

Barefoot on the mud

Harvesting blood

Videoclip The blood

—

Ripe grapes, deep bucket

We get all the juice out, we’re pretty stubborn

We want the best as a tribute

For our shield

—

Because they are present in every vintage

the generations that have already left

the hands that aged

the tradition from which everything emanates

—

We are five villages, which add up to one

A commitment to a longing

Remove gold from a red berry

—

Giró ros and Manto negro

Callet, Moll, Gargollassa

And at every step

A winery that is a candy

—

Barefoot on the mud

Harvesting blood

The one that runs inside us

And the one that springs from boots

—

We come from the countryside

Modern as ever

But always the field

—

Binissalem Designation of Origin

On Earth, Vine and Wine

We owe him everything

—

Videoclip The blood. Translated by Jason Moore

You will be accompanied on this trip by the singing of the birds, the ringing of church bells, the sounds of the countryside and the aromas of wine that are going to conquer you.

#VINECICLE

In winter it is time to prune the vines, with care. The plant is plunged into winter stagnation and the winter environmental conditions allow pruning cuts with a low risk of desiccation or infection.

In winter, the vineyard looks messy, with long, leafless shoots waiting patiently to be pruned.

Pruning is a cultural practice in the vine cycle carried out from the end of November to March. It is very laborious and done by specialized personnel.

The pruning of the vineyard allows defining the productive potential of the plant, and must be adapted to the characteristics of each grape variety, fundamentally, on the fertility of its buds, being able to opt for short pruning or long or mixed pruning.

A very important aspect of pruning is to perform it with not only productive criteria, but also physiological and health, trying on the one hand, to respect the conduction of the sap, without abruptly interrupting the functionality of the vascular tissue and at the same time, making cuts that avoid the drying of the buds.

On the other hand, the most aggressive pruning cuts must be protected with a fungicide product, to avoid the penetration of harmful agents such as fungi that can develop wood diseases that are difficult to treat later.

Finally, pruning must be adjusted to the edaphoclimatic conditions of the area and must guarantee a correct balance between vegetative development and productive capacity to achieve optimal levels of grape and wine quality.

Pruning is therefore an essential action in the management of the vineyard that allows preserving the vitality of the vines, guaranteeing, through its correct performance, a long life to the vineyard. At the same time, it is a fundamental tool to improve the quality of the grapes and the wines produced.

Now, just in a CLICK from your mobile device, You can access the most relevant information to enjoy wine tourism in the DO Binissalem.

Visiting wineries, tasting wines, knowing first-hand the Denomination of Origin, its history, its vineyards and wines and having an experience, is always a good option.

Make use of this information to plan your visits discovering the wines made with local grape varieties and living an experience of those offered by the wineries of the DO.

As a couple, as a family or with friends. Small groups with maximum security measures.

This may be your next gift …!

Mallorca vine growing and wine making.

Denomination of Origin Binissalem (DO), for many people, the best wines on the island.

The island of Mallorca offers among all its paradisiacal values, a wonderful gastronomic and wine-growing offer. A great variety of grapes marked by the characteristics of the soil and the climate, led in character, history and quality by the DO Binissalem wines.

The cultivation of vineyards and winemaking in Mallorca was introduced by the Romans in the s. I B.C. Since the introduction of the cultivation of the vineyard, in 121 B.C., the vine has always been cultivated and wine has been made in the region of DO Binissalem. In the 1st century BC., Plinio talks about Balearic wines, comparing them with the best of Italy. Even during the period of Muslim domination, despite the Koranic prohibitions, the vine was cultivated and wine was made, as confirmed by the Liber maiolichinus, in which
it is related the invasion of Muslim Mallorca by the Pisan troops “who satiated thirst with the wine of the Saracens”. The Arab Beni Abet, offered Jaime I, when he conquered Mallorca, in 1230, “grapes of excellent quality”.
The cultivation of the vine in the region has gone through moments of splendor and others of decline related to the pre-phylloxera and post-phylloxera stages, the Spanish Civil War and the tourist “boom” of the sixties, with a new resurgence at the end of the decade of the eighties. Since then, there has been continued growth in the sector.

Currently, the wine sector represents one of the most successful economic activities, being a sector with an important weight within the agri-food sector. In recent years, the vineyard area and the number of wineries have increased significantly on the Island. Many young people, once trained in agronomy, viticulture and oenology, have started wine-making projects, although there are also many foreign investors, often non-professionals, who have seen in the production of wine an added value to their social status.
The grape varieties grown in Mallorca authorized for vinification are the local ones: Manto Negro, Callet, Fogoneu, Gorgollassa, Escursac, Monastrell, Moll, Prensal Blanc Giró Ros, Malvasía Aromática, Malvasía de Banyalbufar, Moscatel de Alejandría, Moscatel de Grano Menudo and the foreign Cabernet Sauvignon, Chardonnay, Garnacha Blanca, Garnacha Tinta, Macabeo, Viura, Merlot, Parellada, Pinot Noir, Riesling, Sauvignon Blanc, Syrah, Tempranillo, Viognier.
Several levels of wine protection coexist in Mallorca such as Protected Geographical Indications (PGI) and Protected Designations of Origin (PDO): IGP Illes Balears, IGP Vi de la Terra Mallorca, IGP Serra de Tramuntana-Costa Nord, DO Pla i Llevant and DO Binissalem .

In 1990 the Binissalem DO was recognized, the first DO in Mallorca and the second in the Balearic Islands, after the Queso Mahón-Menorca PDO. The DO Binissalem was created by the need to protect the wines made in the region, from those that came from the main land.

Since then, the DO Binissalem has opted for local grape varieties: Manto negro, Callet, Gargollassa, Moll, Giró ros…, which have made it possible to produce unique wines, achieving high quality standards.
With a privileged location, near the Serra de Tramuntana and protected by it, the 600 hectares of vineyards registered in the DO Binissalem grow. They belong to the municipalities of Santa Maria del Camí, Consell, Binissalem, Santa Eugenia and Sencelles, beautiful villages from the interior of Mallorca with its own architecture, place names and winemaking tradition.

The climatic and soil conditions, together with the local grape varieties, give rise to a grape of excellent quality, which makes it possible to produce fruity wines, with a Mediterranean character, with the expression of varietal nuances and aromas of native grapes and of the terroir, which make them singular and unique.

The grape varieties authorized in the DO Binissalem are the red varieties: Manto Negro, Callet, Gargollassa, Monastrell, Tempranillo, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Syrah; and the white varieties: Moll or Prensal Blanc, Moscatel, Giró Ros, Parellada, Macabeo and Chardonnay.

Red wines always include the Manto Negro variety, with a minimum of 30%, and white wines, the Moll or Moscatel variety with a minimum of 50%.

The DO Binissalem has wineries with more than 80 years of history. A total of 11 wineries that protect wines in the DO Binissalem with the labels among which are: (Anaros from Son Roig, Blanc de Blancs, Veritas Roig, Vinyes Velles or Pedra de Binissalem from Bodegas José L. Ferrer; Carmesí, Buc or AmicAmat from Jaume de Puntiró; Albaflor or Raff110 from Vins Nadal; Montnegre or Gran Padrina from Vinyes i Vins Ca Sa Padrina; Llacó or Serral from Can Ramis; Lluor or Torrent Fals from Vinya Taujana; 88 or Goig from Ramanyà; Encobeït, Llampant or Brodat from Sebastià Pastor; Supernova or Can Verdura from Can Verdura Viticultors and Memòries de Biniagual, Verán or Gran Verán from Bodega Biniagual).

Tranquil white, rosé and red wines, dry or sweet, and sparkling white and rosé wines, highly appreciated on the island and available in the best food stores and in the best restaurants.
Those in charge of these wineries, owners, oenologists, vine growers such as: Sebastià Pastor, Toni Ramis, Esperanza Nadal, Charlotte Miller, Juan and Sebastià Crespí, Tomeu Llabrés, José Luis Roses and Pepe Roses, Germán Albertí, Pere Calafat, Guillem and Andreu Suñer, Pere Llabrés, produce quality wines in modern facilities and technology, without forgetting the legacy of their ancestors.

In a place like Mallorca and in a wine region like DO Binissalem, to speak of wine tourism is to speak of heritage, culture, traditions, wine, gastronomy and landscape.

The Wine Route will guide you through paths, wineries, vineyards, towns and villages, a unique landscape, different in each season of the year, which will allow you to discover an unknown Mallorca. A touristic proposal to enjoy at any time of the year.

Design your own route, visiting one or more wineries, towns, cultural centres, markets … and enjoying the offer of local gastronomy.
You can enjoy visits to vineyards and wineries with wine tasting, as well as other activities offered by the wineries. For this, a prior reservation is necessary. During the visit you will have the opportunity to taste and purchase a wide variety of wines.

The winemaking importance of the towns that make up the Binissalem Denomination of Origin is tangible, old and deeply rooted. Wine has sculpted our landscape, our architecture and our culture. You will find the mark left by the Romans, the Arabs and the Catalans in the place names, in the roads and in the architecture. Monuments and churches, museums and houses of culture, talayotic remains, stone houses, old wineries…

Our rich and varied gastronomy is based on the Mediterranean diet, on the local and seasonal products present in the traditional cuisine and, also, on the modern avant-garde cuisine, which you will find in the region and its surroundings.

One of the pleasures that nature gives us is walking along the paths enjoying the landscape offered by the vineyards of the Binissalem Denomination of Origin region, where the wine culture was introduced through the Roman civilization and left its mark on each one of the towns of the island, as well as on many roads traced at that time.

We invite you to enter a labyrinth of paths traced on the map, which will lead you through a surprising landscape of almond, carob, olive, fig and vine trees, with panoramic views of the Serra de Tramuntana.

The cultivation of the vine offers a whole world of sensations that can be discovered in each of the seasons of the year.

WINTER
The dormant vine needs the care of man, who pampers it and prepares it to bear fruit; it’s time to prune.
SPRING
The explosion of the senses, emotions and aromas arrives when the vines begin to give life to the landscape and flowering begins; those little glimpses of vineyard life. Later, green pruning will take place to remove the most superfluous leaves.
SUMMER
The sunsets turn the fields into green seas. The end of the summer will come with the harvesting of the grapes and the smell of harvested grapes in the villages.
AUTUMM
The vines are dressed in a thousand colors, green, yellow, red, gray. It is the time of well-deserved rest after having given the precious fruit.

ARE YOU A #WINELOVER?
¿Do you like to travel and get to know places where vines are grown and wines are made, discover unique wines, get to know local grape varieties, visit vineyards and wineries, impregnate with the scents of the landscape, get lost on roads and trails discovering towns and villages, talk with the local people, discover the local gastronomy that you will always accompany with a local wine…? Sometimes the closest and most accessible is the most unknown. ¿Have you yet discovered the winemaking history of Mallorca?

Mallorca is an Island known for its beautiful coastal or high mountain landscapes, but not so much for its rural inland landscape, for its vineyards or for its wines. The Binissalem Denomination of Origin, with 30 years of history, was the first Denomination of Origin in Mallorca. It has a long winemaking tradition that dates back to the first century. It enjoys an excellent location, where the soil and climate, together with the native grape varieties, result in wines of differentiated quality, with a Mediterranean character, which accompany the rich and varied local cuisine.
Getting away from the hustle and bustle and strolling through the streets of the towns, getting to know their people and their history, participating in the festivals, enjoying the local cuisine or strolling through a market are some of the attractions of the DO Binissalem region.
In the five municipalities that make up the Denomination of Origin Binissalem, Santa Maria del Camí, Consell, Binissalem, Santa Eugènia and Sencelles, you will discover the trace of our ancestors who never stopped cultivating the vineyard and making wine throughout history.

TASTE THE LANDSCAPE THROUGH ITS WINES
The Sierra de Tramuntana, the highest mountain range on the island, is the backdrop to the DO Binissalem, which it protects from cold north winds and frost. Quaternary calcareous sediments make up stony soils, where the vine grows in harmony with other woody plants, almond trees, carob trees, olive trees and wild olive trees … The autochthonous varieties, Manto negro, Callet, Moll, Giró ros, Gargollassa … express in their fruits the essence of the natural environment where they are grown, giving rise to expressive wines, with a lot of character and high quality.

The work in the vineyard is multiple and complex, it requires knowledge of the soil, the climate and the grape varieties to obtain the maximum quality of the fruit. Winter pruning, tillage of the land, spring green treatments and pruning, control of production and ripening when the harvest approaches…
The grapes grown with care and care by the vine growers, in small areas that make up the landscape of the region. Wines are produced in the wineries distributed in the 5 municipalities of the DO Binissalem.
