High Hopes is an approachable, red-berried Syrah with a splash of Grenache from dry-farmed Swartland vineyards. The blend may vary each year, but the ethos remains the same: a lively, easy-drinking red.

The name “High Hopes” had lingered in Lukas’s mind for years, and when the time was right, he used it. During the Covid period, the name took on a new significance, perfectly matching this red blend. High Hopes embodies optimism, adventure, and new beginnings—whether it’s fly-fishing with lofty expectations or ascending in a hot air balloon, all you have is hope. This wine lifts the spirits, just as Van Loggerenberg wines are known to do.
