Cantina e Vini
Time goes by, but, everything is exactly the same in Terramoll as when we began to produce wine back in 2000: the same passion, care and dedication of a family to preserve such an old and well established tradition in Formentera as it is the cultivation of grapevines and winemaking.
For this reason we have endeavoured to recuperate autochthonous grape varieties such as Monastrell and Malvasia as well as innovated with foreign ones such as Viognier, Cabernet sauvignon or Merlot.
The result? A wide variety of wines, all of them have a strong Mediterranean character, but with different hints and features which make them unique and exceptional.
We own 13 hectares of vineyards with the following varieties: Mourvèdre, Merlot, Cabernet, Syrah, Viognier, Malvasia, Grenache Blanc, Muscat Blanc à petits grains. We also have 2 hectares of Mourvèdre planted on ungrafted root-stock.
Our vineyards are located at La Mola, the highest point of the island, at around 200 meters high and are constantly bathed by saline winds.
In Terramoll we have spent many years committed to sustainability. Therefore, we work minimizing the use of natural resources and environmental impact. We currently have all our vineyards in dry land and we have never applied chemical products in the soil; neither herbicides nor mineral fertilizers. This makes our productions very limited.
For some years now all our cultivated lands have been registered in Ecological Agriculture, therefore, we do not apply chemical synthesis, with the aim of preserving the microfauna, fauna and flora of a sensitive ecosystem like our island.
In 2020, all our wines will be on the market with the official certification of organic agriculture and wines.
All the vintage is made by hand in boxes of 13kg. which allows us to do a first selection of the bunches of grape in the fields and a second selection at the winery. Therefore, the wine making process begins with a first-class quality grape and in perfect conditions which allows us to work with low levels of sulphites.
All the varieties are vinificated separately, in small volumes and in a traditional way.
The ripening of the red wine is done in French oak barrels.
Our aim is to produce wines with the maximum quality and which are a reflection of the surrounding countryside.
