CRITICAL ACCLAIM:

Critic tasting note: (2020 vintage) "Tightly mineral and having fresh citrus acidity, this is a lively, vibrant wine. Its bright character is enhanced by the cool, mountain influence. Drink now. Roger Voss" - 87/100, Wine Enthusiast

ABOUT THE BRAND:

Formerly, this producer was known as VDS: 'Vinhos do Douro Superior'

In 2011, Rui Robredo Madeira returned to the same winery where in 1987 he worked his first harvest, in a small winery located in the village of Vermiosa between the cold and in the highest vineyards in Portugal. Through painstaking effort, he rehabilitated the property, because he believed that this region’s winemaking heritage is one of the most hidden treasures of Portuguese Wines. Old vines of native grape varieties have perfectly adapted to the rugged climate caused by the high altitude, along with the soil, where many veins of quartz run through the schist and granite. Through Beyra wines, Madeira seeks the Beira Interior’s true identity: wines of great complexity resulting from the combination of aromatic intensity, minerality and freshness.
