Son Moragues - SPAIN

“SONMO is the abbreviation of Son Moragues, which means "property of the Moragues family."

This ancient and grand estate located in the mountains of Mallorca has more than 500 years of history and a long list of illustrious figures, from the visionary Mateu Moragues to the esteemed Archduke Luis Salvador of Austria.

With more than 300 hectares of oak and pine forests, dry stone terraces, orchards and centuries-old olive groves, Son Moragues has been an agricultural powerhouse for centuries.

The roots of the estate go back many centuries, but it was not until the Middle Ages and after the reconquest that the farm we know today was consolidated.

In the 15th and 16th centuries, thousands of wild olive trees were grafted and a large number of dry stone terraces, cisterns, orchards and irrigation systems were built. Agriculture boomed and rural life prospered. It was a time when every square centimeter of land was cared for and a virtuous circle was forged between people who made a living in the countryside and nature. This is the vision that inspires us today at SONMO. We are the guardians of this land, and our mission is to preserve and improve it for ourselves and the future.”
