Blacknose Ibiza

Blacknose is a brand of Sa Roca des Falcó SL – Ibiza.

THE BEGINNING

Following the establishment of tourism in the early seventies on the Island of Ibiza, agricultural activities were mostly abandoned, and little by little the terraces were overgrown by pine trees. After a huge fire in May 2011, almost all pine trees and junipers situated on our property were burnt. We discovered many ancient dry-stone walls and decided to clean all terraces from the debris of the fire.

This was an opportunity for us, two brothers Peter & Tino Lehner, to reflect on the future use of our land, and we decided to reinvigorate agriculture and plant a vineyard together with an olive grove. Currently we take care of approximately 7’000 vines and 100 olive trees within the guidelines of organic agriculture. In 2021, we began converting towards biodynamic agriculture.
