Love the movie Sideways? Who could forget the misadventures in the Santa Barbara wine country of Miles and Jack? Well, interestingly enough, much of the movie was shot on location at the now famous Hitching Post 2 steakhouse in Buellton, CA. We sit down with the owner and chef AND winemaker, Mr. Frank Ostini about how all of that Hollywood hi jinx came to be. It is a pretty cool story.
We also talk about how Frank came from a restaurant family background. To enhance the experience of your visit to wine country and his restaurant, he makes wines specifically for his steakhouse menu. We find out how he and his partner, Gray Hartly, decided to become wine makers (another great story) and how he fell in love with making delicious food friendly wines.
So join us as we learn some tips of the trade of making a great steak better and how great wine enhances that experience...without going completely sideways.
