P.B. Hein Vineyards is proud to announce our first release.

These wines are constitutive of the current 'best-practice' in viticulture and old world winemaking: small lots, bin fermentation and as little mechanical intervention as is humanly possible.  No huge stainless steel vats, no mechanical pumpovers.  Being 'hands on' without doing harm and just letting the grapes do their thing.

Suisun Valley Syrah
Price: $15

Carefully crafted from syrah grapes grown in the Vernasco Vineyard on Suisun Valley Road, these grapes are a favorite of our winemaker who won his first gold medal at the Napa Town and Country Fair with a syrah produced with grapes from the same vineyard.

A delicious Syrah--especially at the price. Full bodied, fleshy in texture, very distinct in character (white pepper, boysenberry, cherry, vanilla, toast), and long on the finish. Great value. Best drinking over the next 2 years.

****4 out of 5 stars.

A wonderful dry Rose pressed from the same batch of grapes as our 2005 North Coast Syrah! The amazing color and flavors definitely make this "not your mother's rose"...

Darkly colored for a rose; light red. Full flavored, dry, and quite intensely flavored; a rose with depth and light tannin, tasting of boysenberry and cherry, with slight peppery overtones. Long finish.
