The Balearic Islands (Las Islas Baleares) collectively form one of Spain's 17 official administrative regions. This idyllic archipelago Lies about 95 km east of the Iberian Peninsula in the western Mediterranean. The islands' closest neighbours are the provinces of Valencia and Murcia to the west, and Catalonia to the North. The four largest islands (Mallorca, Menorca, Ibiza and Formentera) are known as the archetypal Mediterranean holiday destinations.

Although wine has been produced on the islands since Roman times (vines were introduced around 121 BC), the industry is still evolving. The islands have two official DO wine designations: Pla i Llevant (introduced in 2001) and Binissalem-Mallorca, both located on the island of Mallorca.
