Isenhower 2006 Red Paintbrush Red (Columbia Valley (WA))

This classic Bordeaux blend—67% Cabernet Sauvignon, 11% Merlot, 17% Cab Franc and 6% Petit Verdot—is crafted from 100% Sagemoor vineyard grapes. It's chewy and herbal, with substantial tannins. It probably needs some time to smooth out the rough spots, but it's got character and a mix of Bordeaux-like cassis and herb flavors, all in good balance and finished entirely in older neutral oak.
