Description
2017 Drinkin’ Buddy Club Blend
Drinkin’ Buddy, also known as our basset blend, brings the spirit of Lone Star Wine Cellars to family and friends. This formidable red blend is a collectors’ necessity. Named after the Ross Family’s 17-year old basset hound, Drinkin’ Buddy is a rich and complex red blend with smooth aromas of coffee, leather, and cherry. Dried cherries, plum, ripe fruit, black pepper, and cedar grace the palate with a long lush finish.
