Wine in Mallorca – Vineyards, Tastings & Tours You’ll Love

When you think of Mallorca, you probably picture beaches, turquoise water, and mountain hikes. But did you know the island also has a fantastic wine scene? From small family-run vineyards to award-winning bodegas, Mallorca is quietly becoming one of the best wine destinations in Spain.

If you’re into wine, this is one experience you can’t miss. And the best part? You don’t have to be a sommelier to enjoy it—just a little curiosity (and maybe a free afternoon 😉).

Here’s everything you need to know about Mallorca wine: the regions, the local grapes, and the best ways to taste it—whether at a vineyard, in a wine bar, or on a guided tour.

📍 A Quick Look at Mallorca’s Wine Regions

Mallorca has two official DO (Denomination of Origin) wine regions:

• Binissalem DO – The heart of Mallorcan wine, located inland near towns like Binissalem, Santa Maria del Camí, and Consell. Known for red wines with body and character.

• Pla i Llevant DO – Found in the island’s east (Manacor, Felanitx, Petra), with a bigger variety of wines, including crisp whites and balanced reds.

There are also smaller vineyards outside these DO areas, especially in the foothills of the Tramuntana mountains, making wine tasting here a real adventure.

🍇 Local Grapes You Should Try

Sure, you’ll find familiar names like Cabernet Sauvignon and Chardonnay, but the real charm of Mallorca wine comes from its indigenous grape varieties:

• Manto Negro – A soft, fruity red grape, signature of Binissalem wines.

• Callet – Another local red grape, producing light but aromatic wines.

• Prensal Blanc – A white grape that creates fresh, fruity wines perfect for summer.

If you see these on the label, go for it—you’ll be drinking something uniquely Mallorcan.

🍷 Wine Tours & Tastings in Mallorca

Want to taste the best without worrying about driving? Joining a wine tour is the way to go. Many tours include multiple vineyards, tastings of local olive oil and tapas, plus plenty of insider knowledge from local guides.

Popular Options:

• Half-day vineyard tours – Visit 2–3 wineries, learn about the winemaking process, and enjoy guided tastings.

• Full-day wine tours – Combine wine with food tastings, markets, or even a stop at a scenic village.

• Private tours – Great for couples or small groups who want a more personal experience.

🍴 Where to Taste Wine Without Leaving Town

If you don’t have time for a full tour, no worries—you can still sample Mallorcan wines in Palma and other towns:

• Wine bars in Palma: Look for places like Wineing or La Bodeguilla, where you can try local wines by the glass.

• Mercat de l’Olivar: The central food market in Palma often has stalls with local bottles.

• Restaurants: Many feature Mallorcan wines on their menus—just ask your waiter for recommendations.

If you’d rather go direct to the source, here are a few well-loved bodegas:

🌤️ When’s the Best Time for Wine in Mallorca?

Wine season here is long, but a few highlights:

• Spring – Blossoming vineyards and mild weather make for lovely tours.
