Experience the total eclipse among the vines at Binitord

Foodie travellers who are in Menorca tomorrow, Wednesday, 12 August, can experience the total solar eclipse from a setting closely connected to the island’s landscape and local produce: the vineyards of Binitord, near Ciutadella.

The experience begins at 7.00 pm with a guided visit and wine tasting, followed by the opportunity to watch the eclipse from the estate itself. Binitord’s promotional information highlights access by car and presents the vineyard as a distinctive viewing location away from the traffic restrictions affecting other parts of the island.

For food and wine lovers, the evening offers much more than eclipse viewing. Before the sky darkens, visitors can discover a family-run Menorcan winery, walk through the vineyards, learn about its winemaking process and taste the wines in the landscape where they are produced. Binitord describes its regular visits as a relaxed and authentic way to connect with the land, sustainability and Menorcan wine. 

The winery is around a 15-minute drive or taxi ride from central Ciutadella, making this an attractive combination of vineyards, wine, landscape and an exceptional astronomical event — followed, perhaps, by dinner in Ciutadella.
