Chardonnay Doss

 

Name: 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.

Label: The label shows one of the oldest vines in South Tyrol, which were
traditionally planted for important occasions. This vine is about 270 years old
and is located right next to our Chardonnay vineyards.
