Austin Hope

Austin Hope has a simple goal: to make spectacular, estate grown Syrah and Grenache.

Aiming that high requires a dedication to quality at every step in the winemaking process.  From the care taken in planting the Hope Family Vineyard, to the choice of coopers for barrels. That goal is more than a marketing slogan: it flows directly from the natural advantages of a perfect growing location in the Templeton Gap district of Paso Robles; the intense, flavorful fruit that comes from hand-farming the vineyard; and the skills of a highly talented winemaking hand overseeing it all.

These are wines to be proud of, wines to be enjoyed, wines with the elegance of the Old World and the power of the New.

2009 Austin Hope Rosé

A luminous salmon color sets the tone for this serious Rosé. On the nose the wine reveals aromas of ripe strawberries, peaches, and toast. The entry is defined by a supple, yet viscous body which engulfs the mid-palate with vibrant fruit flavors and notes of honey. An exceptionally long and satisfying finish leaves the impression of a wine that is refreshing and easy-drinking, yet also appropriate for special occasions.
