Hitching Post “Hometown” Pinot Noir
HOMETOWN is our early bottling of Central Coast Pinot Noir that showcases the delicious fruit of a young Pinot. That was easy to do since the 2021 vintage was exceptional.
The 2021 “Hometown” is a pretty, lavish wine graced with bright raspberry and ripe red cherry fruit, a gentle spiciness, an obvious earthiness, and wonderful acidity that makes for a lively palate impression in a medium bodied style. It is drinking beautifully now and will age nicely over the next 5 years. Vineyard sites are Kick-On Ranch, Rio Vista and Quinta del Mar Vineyards, bringing together bouncy acidity and riper berry qualities. Aged 11 months in older French oak barrels.
