Sipping into Summer: Discover Ibiza’s Wine Renaissance

When you think of Ibiza, vibrant beach clubs and sunset beats may be the first images that come to mind. But there’s another side to the island that’s quietly flourishing — a sophisticated wine culture deeply rooted in tradition and passion. At Villa Contact, we believe that truly living in Ibiza means embracing every authentic experience the island offers — and there’s no better way to do that than through its blossoming wine scene.

A Heritage Reimagined

Winemaking in Ibiza dates back to the ancient Phoenicians, but today, a new generation of winemakers is breathing fresh life into this storied tradition. Combining age-old techniques with organic and sustainable practices, Ibiza’s wineries are creating wines that are as enchanting and diverse as the island itself — vibrant, full of character, and impossible to forget.

Leading the Revival: Can Rich, Ojo de Ibiza & Ibizkus

One of the trailblazers of this movement is Can Rich, located near San Antonio. As one of the island’s pioneering organic wineries, Can Rich is dedicated to showcasing the essence of Ibiza’s soil and climate through their range of reds, whites, sparkling, and even fortified wines.

Further north, hidden in the hills above Benirrás, you’ll find Ojo de Ibiza, a boutique, family-run vineyard crafting exceptional small-batch wines. Their respect for the land and traditional methods results in soulful vintages that reflect Ibiza’s wild beauty.

Meanwhile, Ibizkus Wines continues to steal the spotlight with their celebration of indigenous grape varieties like Monastrell and Malvasia. Their hand-harvested grapes and minimal intervention philosophy deliver wines that are authentic, expressive, and deeply connected to the island’s unique terroir.

Immersive Wine Tasting Experiences

Wine tasting in Ibiza is not simply an activity — it’s a way to slow down, connect with the land, and savour life’s simple pleasures. This summer, exciting opportunities await wine lovers:

• Vineyard Tours and Tastings at Can Rich: Stroll through organic vineyards, learn about biodynamic practices, and enjoy tastings paired with artisanal local products.
• Sunset Wine Sessions at Ibizkus: Set against the backdrop of the rolling hills of Santa Eulalia, enjoy curated flights of wine paired with local cheeses and cold cuts, perfectly timed with Ibiza’s iconic sunsets.
• Private Wine Safaris: Explore multiple wineries in one luxurious day tour, guided by local experts who share the hidden stories of Ibiza’s wine heritage, ending with a gourmet countryside feast.
• Wine and Art Evenings: Combine culture with viticulture during special nights where you can taste Ibiza’s finest wines while viewing local art exhibitions and enjoying live music.

For those who want a more hands-on experience, some bodegas even offer harvest days in late summer, where you can join the picking and crushing of grapes — a joyful, communal way to connect with Ibiza’s agricultural soul.
