DOP Binissalem: Three old vines, new labels — is that enough?

Answer

What makes Binissalem wine different from Santa Maria del Camí wine?

Even within the same DOP, wines from different Mallorcan municipalities can taste different because soils, exposure and microclimates are not the same. That is why a wine from Binissalem may not taste identical to one from Santa Maria del Camí or Sencelles. A clearer municipal label can help explain those differences to buyers.
