2019 Stags' Leap Winery Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley

nose: river stones, acidity, oaky
Taste: empty, no structure, watery, cucumber, acid sharp like a paper cut, cassis.
tldr; mouthful of embarrassment.

Instantly hit with sweet vanilla oak and violet on nose. taste is front loaded. soft delicate body. no bass. decent acidity. mild pallate cleanser effect. would probably have this with duck or something idk.

2019 Château Ferrière

visual: deep, purple, light minimal tearing
palate initial: high acid, high tannin, somewhere between medium and medium+ body, like if someone slapped me with citrate and then threw a raisin in my mouth. big grape flavor. Some smokiness (tobacco vs vanilla). Mild+ spice at the end.
Palate after opening longer: medium+ acid, strong tannins still, less smokiness, some pungent flavor that i can't describe, hint of spice at the end.
Overall: not great at first due to stronk acidity but it develops how i like to season my steak. A little salt and a hint of pepper to taste the steak most; this wine just tastes like pure grape with accenting flavors to bring it out more.
would benefit from multiple years of storage.
92 for now.
