Bodega Can Axartell – Exclusive Wines from Pollença
Located near the charming town of Pollença in northern Mallorca, Bodega Can Axartell is an innovative winery that combines modern architecture, organic viticulture, and exceptional wine quality. Since its founding, the estate has been dedicated to craftsmanship, authenticity, and the production of exclusive Mallorcan wines, crafted in small, carefully monitored batches.
Passion for Exclusive Mallorcan Wines
Across approximately 70 hectares of vineyards, the team cultivates distinctive red, rosé, and white wines, all bottled under the Vi de la Terra Mallorca designation. The vineyards are planted with indigenous grape varieties such as Callet, Manto Negro, and Gorgollassa, alongside international varieties including Syrah, Viognier, and Malvasía. One of the winery’s most distinctive features is its underground cellar, built within a former gypsum quarry. Here, the Método Gravetat (gravity-flow winemaking) is used, allowing the grapes and wine to move naturally through the production process without the use of pumps. This gentle method preserves the integrity of the fruit, resulting in elegant, expressive, and well-structured wines.
The winery follows a holistic philosophy based on:
- Limited production to ensure the highest quality
- Organic vineyard management and the use of renewable energy
- A strong focus on indigenous grape varieties such as Callet, Manto Negro, and Gorgollassa
- Gentle gravity-flow winemaking using the Método Gravetat
- Aging red wines in either stainless steel tanks or French oak barrels, depending on the style of the wine
