About the Winery

Hope Family has been making wine in California, USA, for more than 30 years. They have been farming in Paso Robles and when they arrived, the region was barely discovered. They started planting grapes and apples. At that time, the oak studding terrain was still undiscovered, and no one knew that one day the area would hold viticultural terroir of great significance in one of the best winegrowing regions for red wine in central coast California.

Today, the apple orchards are no more and, in their place, Hope Family wines cultivate vineyards of different varieties that are best suited to the region. This includes Grenache, Mourvèdre, Merlot, Syrah, and Cabernet. The vine density has been boosted, the terroir here expresses the unique character of the region.
