Wine Description:
Austin Hope Cabernet Sauvignon from Paso Robles, USA, is a powerful and muscular wine crafted by renowned winemaker Austin Hope. The Hope family, originally grape growers, transitioned to winemaking in 1995, earning an impressive reputation for producing serious red wines. This Cabernet Sauvignon stands out in style and quality. The grapes for this bottling are sourced from high-quality plots in Paso Robles. The region's gentle hills, sunny days, and cooling breezes from the nearby Pacific Ocean allow the Cabernet grapes to reach optimal ripeness while maintaining balance. The vineyards, situated at 1000 feet on ancient marine soils, preserve freshness and elegance. The wine is aged separately in French oak for 11 months, then blended and aged for an additional 3 months to harmonize and add complexity. It boasts seductive aromas of cassis, blackberry, and dark cherry, complemented by notes of leather, wood smoke, and tobacco. The palate reveals a full-bodied, generous wine with smooth yet bold tannins, culminating in a remarkably long finish. This wine's previous vintages have ranked among Wine Enthusiast's Top 10 worldwide, showcasing its exceptional quality and value.
