Manto Negro
Manto Negro is the soul of Mallorca in a glass: This indigenous grape variety brings the sun-drenched character of the island directly to your home. The wines typically display a light ruby color , delicate red fruit aromas, and a pleasant, warm Mediterranean spiciness – approachable yet with a distinctive character that sparks curiosity.
Manto Negro grows almost exclusively on Mallorca , where it has shaped the red wine culture for centuries – especially in the Binissalem and Pla i Llevant Denominaciones de Origen. At Vinoscout you'll find four carefully selected wines of this rare island variety, from everyday bottles starting at around €20 to ambitious bottlings for special occasions.

Manto Negro – the soul of Mallorca in a glass
Manto Negro is one of the most important autochthonous grape varieties of Mallorca and stands like hardly any other for the independent character of the island. The red wines from this variety generally appear with a lively, medium-deep color and a style that combines fruitiness and Mediterranean warmth with a certain lightness – powerful, but never cumbersome. If you are looking for wines that make their origin truly tasteable, you will find them here.
One grape variety, one island
Manto Negro is closely intertwined with the vineyards of Mallorca and is hardly to be found outside the Balearic Islands. That is exactly what makes it so special: these wines tell of a place, not of a global style. The variety ripens under the Mediterranean sun and produces wines that carry this origin with conviction.

At Vinoscout, you will find four carefully selected wines centered around Manto Negro – from producers such as Ànima Negra and Bodegas Ribas, two of the most renowned addresses on the island. The price range extends from around 20 to 209 Euros, so both a relaxed entry with the ÀN/2 or the Ribas Rosat is possible, as well as reaching for a special piece like the Ànima Negra AN in the 3.0-liter bottle. Small but fine – this range is worth it for everyone who wants to truly get to know Mallorca.
