One of the most established vineyards on the island, José L. Ferrer, was founded by a 28-year-old José Luis Ferrer Ramonell. Located at the entrance to the town of Binissalem, the bodega remains a family-run business, passed down through several generations. Adapting to and implementing more recent and widespread winemaking methods from around the world has led to their current success and production of some of Mallorca's top wines. A visit to the museum will give you an insight to the vineyard’s history and evolution of their wine, with 60 minute wine tasting and tour packages including delicious Mahones cheese.

A young vineyard but certainly no less impressive, Ànima Negra was coined in 1994 by two self-taught Mallorcan friends, Pere Ignasi Obrador and Miquel Àngel Cerdà, on the old country estate of Son Burguera close to the town of Felanitx. Whilst it ranks as a relatively new vineyard, the wine produced here dates back to the 13th century. This vineyard’s organic farming methods have created elegant wines, receiving worldwide praise and a loyal local following. You’ll need to contact the vineyard directly to arrange tastings and tours.

Bodega Ribas has been producing wine for more than 300 years, making it the oldest winery to exist on the island today. Dating back to the 18th Century, it belongs to the historic ‘Ca’n Ribas’ listed mansion boasting traditional features such as an original barrel cellar and winemaking warehouse. Ancestor to the current owners, Pedro Ribas de Cabrera originally founded the winery and is responsible for its developing international prestige more than a century ago. A 90 minute tour and tasting includes a selection of four wines, artisan bread and homemade olive oil. 

Visits are by appointment only, Monday to Friday 10:00 to 18:00.

Founded by Andres Gelabert in 2006, a Mallorcan by birth he spent his formative years in the US, predominantly in California. There his passion for wine making began, and on returning to his native Mallorca, he sought out the ideal wine region and eventually created Bodegas Angel (“An” is for Andres and “gel” for Gelabert). Andres's vision is to make outstanding wines by utilising the combination of the rich fertile local soil, unique indigenous grape varieties and modern innovations in wine making.

The vineyard has 20 hectares of French and Mallorcan vines - a diverse selection from the Mallorca Prensal Blanc (Moll) and Manto Negro to the French Viognier and Chardonnay for the white wine and Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon for the reds.  At present there is a mix of young vines and vines that are over 50 years old, thus allowing the production of complex wines.  Throughout the year these vines receive a lot of care. They are pruned, fertilised, weeded and yield controlled, to produce the optimal grape for harvesting.

Bodegas Angel's first vintage was in 2008 - the Blanc de Blanca and Angel Negre. The vision was to make the best wine using local grapes blended with foreign varieties to create an expressive, enjoyable wine with an emphasis on its fruit flavours. Their wines soon received recognition in the local newspapers, national wine guides and international wine competitions. 

Today the vineyard has an ample range of wines. They currently produce white wine, Blanc Noir, oaked white wine, rose wine, red wine and oaked red wine. Production has increased year on year and is now at 200,000 bottles per year, with their eventual target being 300,000 bottles per year. Thanks to their consistency and exportation, Bodegas Angel is increasingly becoming a recognised brand locally and internationally. 

Tours of the vineyard are available in English, Spanish and German and last one hour, alternatively you can opt for a lunch or dinner (minimum of 10 people) to enjoy delicious food complimented by Bodegas Angel's wines. Reservations for both tours and food menus are required.
