The name Hope appears in every chapter of the 30-plus year wine industry history of Paso Robles, California. Chuck Hope planted one of the first vineyards just east of the Salinas River in 1978, and helped establish the Paso Robles region’s solid reputation for high quality grape growing. He helped other vineyards get their start and helped found what is now the Paso Robles Wine Alliance.

Chuck’s son, Austin Hope, grew up sharing his father’s passion for grape growing and the Paso Robles region, and became a winemaker. Today, this innovative farming family owns Hope Family Wines, producer of the Liberty School, Treana, Candor, Troublemaker, and Austin Hope brands.
