Grapes are harvested by hand at the beginning of September. The crop is pre-pressed, and the resulting juice is decanted for 1-2 days. This is followed by a two-week fermentation that takes place at a controlled low temperature of 15–17 °C.

Two types of containers are used for wine aging. 10% is stored in oak barrels and the rest in steel tanks. During aging, malolactic fermentation is not carried out, low temperature is maintained.

The vineyards are located along the plains and hills of the province of Gorizia at an altitude of 60 meters above sea level.

The history of the Attems wine family goes back several centuries when the Bishop of Salzburg donated a plot of land to Corrado Attems in 1106. Family records kept in the Lucinico family residence show that the family became interested in winemaking a long time ago, namely in 1764. The materials refer to the lists of wines, made from the Ribola and Rifosco grape variety
