This part of Veneto includes Colli Berici, Colli Euganei, Colli Euganei Fior d'Arancio, Vicenza and Breganze. In Colli Berici, higher vineyards and lower rainfall occur alongside calcareous, red-clay and volcanic soils. The wines can be firm and structured. Tai Rosso is an indigenous Colli Berici grape, and its wines vary between sites.
