PB Hein is proud to introduce 3 amazing new wines from our first release!

2005 Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon

Gently pressed from grapes planted, grown and tended by PB himself on the Hein family ranch in the Deer Park area of St.Helena (just below Howell Mountain).

Velevety and full bodied; a medium rich Cabernet with a distinctive nose, and flavors of black currant, cherry, toast, and spicy oak. Long, mildly tannic finish. For drinking over the next 3-5 years.

2004 Napa Valley Charbono

A supple, full-bodied, complex wine. Richly flavored, with notes of black cherry, tea, and oak, and a hint of bitter almond on the finish. For drinking over the next 2-3 years.

The mysterious origins of Charbono:
The Charbono grape of California is a cousin to the French Corbeau variety of the Savoie region. Charbono grapes make a silky, deep purple, moderately acidic wine, which hits its peak after aging for 10 to 20 years.

2007 Suisun Valley Syrah Rose

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.

All 3 of these new wines are available on our shopping cart:
