Only a handful of California Cabernets earn 94 points and still sell under $50. The Austin Hope 1 Liter is one of them — and stock moves fast.
The Paso Robles Cab That Changed the Conversation. In the Format That Makes Sense.
Austin Hope has become one of the defining names in Paso Robles wine, and the 2024 Cabernet Sauvignon is the expression that earns that reputation every vintage. Sourced from carefully selected vineyards across the Paso Robles AVA, where ancient flood plains, calcareous soils, and dramatic day-to-night temperature swings create ideal conditions for world-class Cabernet Sauvignon, this is a wine of genuine power, richness, and balance that consistently outperforms its price point by a significant margin.
The 1-liter format gives you 33% more of what you love. More pours, more moments, and a bottle that makes an impression whether you're bringing it to a dinner party, stocking your cellar, or gifting it to someone who appreciates exceptional California Cab.
Tasting Notes
-
Nose: Fresh black currants, ripe cherries, subtle smoky notes, and dried spice complexity that opens up beautifully with 20 minutes of air
-
Palate: Full-bodied and layered, blackberry and ripe cherry lead into vanilla bean and brown butter with a lush, generous mid-palate that defines the Austin Hope house style
-
Finish: Long and satisfying with bright acidity and firm, polished tannins that signal excellent aging potential and reward patience in the glass
How to Enjoy
-
Decant for 30 minutes: Pour into a decanter and let it breathe. The 2024 vintage opens up dramatically with air and the full complexity reveals itself in layers.
-
Serve at 60-65°F: Slightly below room temperature. Too warm and the alcohol dominates; too cold and the fruit closes up. This temperature is the sweet spot.
-
Food pairings: Ribeye steak, lamb chops, braised short ribs, and aged cheddar are natural matches. Also exceptional alongside a hearty pasta Bolognese or wood-fired pizza with rich toppings.
-
Gift it: The 1-liter Austin Hope is the wine gift that stops people in their tracks. The size alone makes it impressive, and the 94-point score makes it credible. A guaranteed conversation starter.
