Pale Fox aims to elevate Prosecco to new levels of complexity and sophistication. This aim has been realised with James Suckling recently awarding Pale Fox 93 points, placing it as the best Prosecco in the World.
In a forgotten corner of northern Italy, where the Venetian coastal plain rises to form the first foothills of the Alps, lies the Valle delle Volpi or Valley of the Foxes. Located in the exclusive superiore DOCG region of Asolo-Montello, where sumptuously pale grapes produce exceptionally delicate sparkling wines and, according to legend, where foxes gather to play in the pale moonlight among the vines since time immemorial. It is here on a late summer’s afternoon in 2018 two English wine enthusiasts tasted for the first time what surely had to be the ultimate sparkling wine: all the floral notes and lightness of a great Prosecco with the minerality, structure and complexity of a fine champagne. They were inspired to bring this wine to the world and named it Pale Fox in honour of its birth place.
