点评:Austin Hope was the first of several winery tastings during our time in Paso Robles and, as I told our hostess, the experience was gonna be hard to beat. Everything about our time at there was top notch! From the welcome glass of Sauvignon Blanc to the parting gift of an Austin Hope hat, we felt like everyone worked hard to give us a great experience. On our booking, I had mentioned that we were celebrating my husband’s retirement and everyone we spoke to congratulated him warmly.
We were in an outside cabana, private and cozy, and were blessed with a beautiful blue sky, warm spring day. Our hostess Maddi is phenomenal and very, very good at what she does. Friendly and engaging with just the right amount of wine info and fun conversation, she made us feel comfortable and right at home. When I mentioned that I prefer white wine, she immediately offered to switch gears and do a white flight for me while still doing reds for my husband. Maddi « went rogue » a couple of times (off the preset flight list) and brought out an extra few wines to try. At the end of the tasting, she brought out a gift my husband. - an Austin Hope hat. It was a small gesture but it made a big impact and we left there completely happy with the whole experience.
Overall, Austin Hope has got their act together! The casual atmosphere, the friendly and knowledgeable staff, along with their attention to the little details, made this wine tasting experience hard to beat. I seriously doubt it can be done!

我们住在一个私密舒适的户外小屋里,阳光明媚,蓝天白云,春光明媚。我们的女主人麦迪非常出色,她的服务非常出色。她热情友好,对葡萄酒的了解恰到好处,谈话也充满乐趣,让我们感到宾至如归。当我提到我更喜欢白葡萄酒时,她立即提出换个口味,为我准备一趟白葡萄酒之旅,同时仍然为我丈夫准备红葡萄酒。 Maddi 有几次“不按常理出牌”(没有按预定的酒单),多带了几瓶酒来试喝。品酒结束时,她送给我丈夫一份礼物——一顶 Austin Hope 的帽子。这虽然是一个小小的举动,但却产生了很大的影响,我们对整个体验非常满意。
总而言之,Austin Hope 的表现堪称完美!轻松的氛围、友好而知识渊博的员工,以及他们对细节的关注,让这次品酒体验无与伦比。我真心觉得这体验不可能比得上!
