BELLA BACINOS (36 S. LA GRANGE Rd.) in DOWNTOWN LA GRANGE WILL HOST A
WINE RECEPTION WITH GRAY HARTLEY FEATURING WINES FROM THE
HARTLEY-OSTINI HITCHING POST WINERY AT 6:30 p.m. on WEDNESDAY, January
20.Reservations are available for $59 per person (excluding tax and
gratuity). Bella Bacinos will provide complimentary small plates and
artisanal cheeses. All wines will be available for purchase at special
pricing.
To RSVP, contact Dan Bacin at (708) 420-9600 or send him an email at
Bacinos@comcast.net.
Guests will have the opportunity to learn about the featured wines
from Hartley himself. Hartley also will share stories and behind the
scenes insights from the making of the movie “Sideways”, which
will be playing on flat screens at Bella Bacinos.
The Hitching Post II restaurant was prominently featured in the 2004
movie, which increased the exposure of the Santa Barbara Wine Country
and helped to popularize Pinot Noir.
Hitching Post Wines are made by Gray Hartley and Frank Ostini. Hartley
and Ostini first made wine at home in 1979, and produced their first
Pinot Noir in 1981. In 1984, they moved their winery to produce wines
exclusively for the Hitching Post II restaurant, and as production
grew, they moved to the Terravant Winery in Buellton, just 1.5 miles
from Hitching Post II.
The pair believes they are caretakers who guide the wine into the
bottle. They produce numerous Pinot Noirs, a few Syrahs, and a
Cabernet Franc blend. Most wines are aged in French Oak barrels for 18
months and are bottled unfiltered. This minimalist approach allows the
wine to reflect the unique character of the vineyard and the vintage
by preserving the essence of the grape.
