The Story Behind Beyra White

The name Beyra White is inspired by the ancient lands of Beira, one of Portugal's oldest and most distinctive wine regions. Located near the Spanish border, the vineyards benefit from one of the country's highest vineyard elevations.

Winemaker Rui Roboredo Madeira founded the Beyra project with a clear vision: to reveal the extraordinary freshness and elegance that mountain vineyards can produce.

Rather than focusing on heavy extraction or excessive winemaking intervention, Beyra White allows the vineyard to speak naturally.

The result is a white wine that perfectly balances modern precision with Portuguese tradition.

The Beira Interior Terroir Behind Beyra White

The vineyards producing Beyra White are planted at high altitude in Portugal's Beira Interior region.

These vineyards benefit from:

• Cool mountain nights

• Warm sunny days

• Granite soils

• Large day-to-night temperature variation

• Excellent natural ventilation

These conditions preserve acidity while allowing grapes to develop remarkable aromatic intensity.

The granite soils contribute freshness and mineral precision.

This exceptional terroir gives Beyra White its distinctive identity and vibrant character.
