A legend of the Barossa wine scene if there ever was one! Hugo Gramp was born in the Barossa in 1895 and it was in this part of the wine world that he worked and lived his entire life. It was Hugo’s grandfather Johan who was a pioneer of the region, planting the first vines in 1847 and running the family wine ‘biz with his son Gustav (known as “Gramp & Sons”), until Hugo took over the reigns at age 25.
If you know much about iconic Aussie red labels and especially anything with the words Cabernet and Coonawarra slapped on the label – you’ll know St Hugo and you’ll know St Hugo Coonawarra Cabernet. It’s got a reputation that’s up there with the likes of Wynns, Riddoch and Petaluma as the Coonawarra’s most famous Cabernet labels.
First released in 1980 every vintage ever since has been made in homage to Hugo Gramp and the classic, signature style of a St Hugo Coonawarra Cabernet. “Blackberry, bramble, dried herbs and pencil shavings, with crafted tannins and French oak shaping the long and cerebral finish.”
