History

Biniagual originated as an alquería dating from the Muslim period, associated with horticulture. Later, the historic agriculture also included olives, grapevines and grain.

Enjoyment

Wine is central to Biniagual's identity: the village includes vineyards and a wine cellar culture, and wines are also produced from native Mallorcan grape varieties.

The Biniagual estate also produces its own olive oil as well as homemade orange and lemon marmalades.

Location

Biniagual is a historic Mallorcan llogaret, meaning a small rural settlement in the interior of the island near Binissalem and in the Binissalem wine region.

In the broader context of the island, Biniagual belongs to the wine-growing area of Mallorca's interior, with Binissalem as its centre, rather than to the island's coastal zones.
