Monday, February 14, 2011 - Is this all La Mission can muster? I know this wasn't a swell vintage, but La Mission is famous for shining in less than perfect years. It's not bad; it just isn't good either. It is rather one sided; it has plenty of structure and mineral, but, ...'where's the fruit?' (remember that commercial?) I really think Many of the Bordelais, based on many bottles I have drunk lately, have forgotten how to make wine!
