| Menorca Wine Like its neighbouring islands, Menorca has an ancient winemaking tradition, although production was interrupted at the end of British rule and on a number of other occasions. In the past few decades, several vineyards have begun to cultivate different varieties of grapes and opened wine cellars, revitalising an old trade with renewed vigour. Today there are four enterprises with their corresponding vineyards on the island.
