Doss refers to a small hill around the village of Cortina s.s.d. Vino which was often under water and therefore often called “Little Venice”. This hill – which was formed by these floods – is one of the most important areas for Chardonnay and Pinot Grigio in the Bassa Attesina region. In contrast to the rest of the region and due to the soil structure, the area is almost exclusively planted with vines instead of apple trees.
