I have a suggestion. You save yourself eight hours of waiting time at the airport and the arduous journey to Mallorca. In return, I will send you the island sun and sea breeze directly to your home, into your wine glass.

Performance: Mesquida Mora
|
|
|
In the heart of Mallorca
|
The winery is the personified wild side of Mallorca. It is located in the heart of the island, in Porres, far away from Palma and Ballermann. Our winemaker Barbara Mesquida Mora grew up among vines, barrels and grapes.
|
Then began an unusual path: studying Catalan philology; then oenology and joining her father's winery. Finally, her own project. And yet she describes her career as synchronicity, as destiny.
|
She consistently calls her Entry line « Sincronia ». This includes a White wine, Rosé and Red wine. All three wines from the Sincronia line are positively uncomplicated, exude a clear Mediterranean character and are favourites with a strong fruit profile.

Top wines from Mesquida Mora
In the higher category of their assortment, the wines then show more origin, but sacrifice some of the fruit.
|
|
|
|
Acrollam
|
The Mexican Blanc is made from the rare Prensal and Giró varieties. The obviously intense yellow fruitiness of this wine is joined by a herbal and aniseed note that goes very excitingly with Mediterranean cuisine. Incidentally, Acrollam is the anagram for Mallorca.
|

|
Trispol
|
With the Trispol Barbara presents a full-bodied cuvée of Callet with Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah. This is intensely aromatic, redolent of dark berries, spices and chocolate. This wine is broad but not oversized. Wonderful with grilled food.
|
|
|
|
Sòtil
|
The Sòtil is a wine of great finesse that you might not expect from Mallorca. Bàrbara Mesquida Mora now only uses the indigenous Callet grape variety for this wine, which is mainly found in Felanitx as well as in her 67-year-old d'Es Pou de Sa Carrera vineyard in her home town of Porrera.
|
Here is a wine of wonderful finesse, clarity and elegance with a tailored acidity framework and a lively minerality.

Refuge for the future
Barbara is pursuing big goals. After successfully converting her twenty-hectare farm to biodynamics, she is already making plans for the next step. At her winery in Porreres, west of Manacor, she is planning a sustainable farm that will take care of animals, people and nature in equal measure and will function in a closed cycle. So it remains exciting to see what the power woman will achieve.
