The harvest will <strong>start earlier<\/strong> in some <strong>vineyards<\/strong>, as they began harvesting the <strong>Chardonnay<\/strong> variety in the <strong>early hours of Sunday to Monday<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>This process <strong>varies from estate to estate<\/strong>, not only due to the <strong>different grape varieties<\/strong> but also depending on the <strong>type of wine<\/strong> they wish to produce. <strong>Long-cycle grapes<\/strong>, such as the <strong>red Mantonegro<\/strong> and <strong>white Moll<\/strong>, will be harvested <strong>later<\/strong> in the season.<\/p>\n<h2>Weather conditions during the campaign<\/h2>\n<p>The <strong>winter of 2022-2023<\/strong> in Spain was <strong>warm<\/strong>, with an average temperature of 7.4\u00baC, 0.8\u00baC above the average, making it the <strong>tenth warmest winter since 1961<\/strong> and the <strong>fifth warmest of the 21st century<\/strong>. In the <strong>Baleares<\/strong>, temperatures were between <strong>0 and 1\u00baC above average<\/strong> and the <strong>winter was wet<\/strong>, with <strong>127% of normal rainfall<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>The months of <strong>April, May, and June<\/strong> were <strong>warm and dry<\/strong> in the islands, with <strong>thermal anomalies of 0.3-0.4\u00baC<\/strong>. In the <strong>Binissalem DO region<\/strong>, <strong>April and May<\/strong> had <strong>normal rainfall<\/strong>, but <strong>June<\/strong> was <strong>very dry<\/strong>. These weather conditions <strong>advanced the flowering<\/strong> of some grape varieties, such as <strong>Chardonnay, Muscat, Merlot, and Syrah<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Due to the <strong>weather forecasts<\/strong>, the <strong>Regulatory Council<\/strong> authorised <strong>moderate and controlled irrigation<\/strong> in <strong>April<\/strong>. During the <strong>summer<\/strong>, the <strong>intense heat arrived late<\/strong>, with the first heatwave occurring in the third week of July, reaching 40\u00baC in some areas. The extreme heat continued into August, with highs of 40\u00baC and lows exceeding 20\u00baC during the third heatwave of the summer.<\/p>\n<h2>The DO Binissalem<\/h2>\n<p>The DO Binissalem, officially recognised in <strong>1990<\/strong>, covers an area of about <strong>600 hectares<\/strong> spread across five municipalities in the <strong>Es Raiguer region<\/strong>: <strong>Binissalem, Consell, Santa Maria del Cam\u00ed, Santa Eug\u00e8nia, and Sencelles<\/strong>. The wines of this DO are renowned for their <strong>character and quality<\/strong>, the result of a <strong>unique combination of native and foreign varieties<\/strong>, along with a distinctive <em><strong>terroir<\/strong><\/em> and <strong>Mediterranean climate<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>As the harvest progresses, producers remain hopeful that, despite the <strong>climatic challenges<\/strong>, 2024 will be a <strong>memorable year<\/strong> in terms of wine quality.
