When A Cardiologist Tells You To Drink A Little Red Wine, What Does It Mean?

When a cardiologist tells you to drink a little red wine,how much does he mean for you to drink? The Dr.told my husband to drink a little red wine.At first he did not like it,now he drink the junk as if it were tea.I know that can t be good because now he is getting really soused and does not even realize it.He is convinced the way he drinks it,loaded with ice cubes,it won t make him drunk.
