MARUCCIA

Mallorca, Spain

In Llucmajor, in the southern part of the island, Frank Maruccia found the perfect place for the bodega in 2009. Here, far away from the tourist hustle and bustle, there are the perfect conditions to produce wines in peace and to live undisturbed. Right at the beginning, Frank started by planting one hectare with Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Syrah. A short time later, he added half a hectare of Chardonnay. The construction of the house with the attached bodega began in 2010, and the wine club "Club de vino 953", was founded in 2012. At the same time, he was also able to plant the southern Italian grape variety Aglianico, which comes from his father's homeland. Since 2019, Cabernet, Viognier and Giro Ros vines have also been growing on a neighbouring plot of land.

​

Since 2011, the wine has been vinified and bottled entirely on site, from harvest to storage. In 2013, the annual production of wine was 7,500 bottles and this is to be increased to a maximum of 18,000 in the long term. It’s wines that can be stored well.
