Attems is a name that evokes the history of wine in Friuli Venezia Giulia. In fact, the first document attesting to the Attems dynasty's possession of land suitable for viticulture in Collio dates back to 1106, and the production of Ribolla Gialla and Refosco is recorded in the ledgers of 1764.

A thousand-year-old tradition that has made this winery a point of reference in the territory and that has seen Count Douglas Attems as its protagonist: he is credited with founding, in 1964, the Consorzio dei Vini del Collio, the third largest in Italy and the first in Friuli.

The history of Attems is thus intertwined with the history of Friuli Venezia Giulia itself: from the Patriarchate of Aquileia to the County of Gorizia, from the First World War to the present day.

Since 2000, Attems has been owned by the Frescobaldi family, which has preserved its historical value intact, giving it a future of innovation. Read more
