"Don't let the crazy label fool you, this wine is no joke, even though the label features a Buzzard with a very sly grin. Surely named after winemaker Boyd "Buzz" Buckinghamas a fun way to do an unconventional blend without upsetting the wine Gods. The blend bounces around from year to year, but is mainly a Cabernet & Syrah & Cab Franc blend with a splash of Petit Verdot. All of the judges liked this wine, and couldn't believe the label when it was revealed after scoring it 91 Points. It drinks surprisingly elegant." The Wine Panel
Buzz always comes up with a fun blend that is always different. This vintage starts with a dark enhanced note of black cherry blending nicely with an earthy Syrah and finishing with a smooth, lingering flavor of currants and plum. Limited to Stoners Wine Club and sure to sell quickly!
Pairs well with firm flavored foods - a sirloin steak topped with tarragon butter tops the list.
