XX Mostra de Vi Casolà de Binissalem: organised with passion and institutional support

Behind the success of the XX Mostra de Vi Casolà de Binissalem lies the hard work of the association Enofles de la Parra, a group dedicated to preserving the tradition of homemade winemaking. With key support from the Binissalem Town Council, the organisation was able to deliver a seamless and professional event. From setup and signage to logistics and safety, every detail was carefully managed to create a warm and welcoming space for both producers and guests.

The commitment of the town council to promote and preserve cultural traditions like this is vital. This collaboration reflects Binissalem’s strong ties to viticulture and its desire to elevate grassroots winemaking as part of its living heritage.

A highlight of the event was the diversity of participating wineries — more than 20 in total — representing towns and villages across Mallorca. These homemade winemakers are not commercial producers, but rather individuals and families who craft small batches of wine with care, creativity, and often recipes passed down through generations.

Visitors were treated to an array of wines, including robust reds, crisp whites, refreshing rosés, and even unconventional or experimental blends. This diversity reflects the richness of the island’s terroir and the individuality of each winemaker’s approach.
