Vintner Austin Hope, whose family is intertwined in the rise of Paso Robles, spent years working to release a wine of this caliber. Dark and thick in the glass, aromas of black currant and blueberry meet with roasted coffee, chocolate syrup and baked plum on the wondrous nose. The palate is soft and extremely expressive, with blueberry, black pepper, firm midpalate tannins and a finish that’s redolent of cappuccino candies. (MK)

This is a decadent wine, effusive in its cassis, black plum, black olive and forest floor aromas and flavours, plus a hint of mint and pomegranate. It's powerful and ripe, yet wears it well, without any discernible heat. (LM)

The 2015 Cabernet Sauvignon Paso Robles features a deep garnet-purple color and nose of baked black currants, black cherries and dried herbs with touches of menthol, baker’s chocolate, licorice and black soil. The full-bodied palate has a solid structure of chewy tannins and lively acid framing the muscular black fruit preserves, finishing on an earthy/dried herbs note. (LPB)

Notes

Austin Hope Cabernet Sauvignon stems from a driving fascination with the various terroirs of Paso Robles. It also tells the story of the Hope family’s long history in the region and how their pride and knowledge can be brought to life in a bottle of wine. Winery note: "Deep ruby in color, the 2015 Austin Hope Cabernet Sauvignon expresses intense fragrances of black currants, ripe black cherries and blackberries with subtle notes of violets, mocha and dried spices. It’s a big, powerful, modern-styled wine with velvety tannins and heaps of juicy blackberry and cherry fruit, while nuances of cedar, clove and vanilla bean round out the long, smooth finish. It’s full bodied, rich and balanced by fresh acidity with a firm, polished tannin structure."
