Wine Advocate#153(6/2004) Rating: 89 points Drink:2004 - 2018
A floral, elegant, graceful, classic Margaux, the 2001 d’Issan displays medium-bodied flavors (cherries, black currants, and acacia flowers), and an understated, restrained personality without the power of the superb 2000. Drink this pure, well-balanced 2001 over the next 12-14 years.-Robert Parker
Wine Spectator (3/31/2004) Rating: 90
Intense aromas of blackberry tart with hints of rhubarb. Medium- to full-bodied, with soft tannins and a medium finish. This is really nice. Stylish wine. I like it better than the 2000. Best after 2008. 8,750 cases made. –JS
Decanter Rating：
Very good colour, fragrant Margaux fruit, all in charm and finesse, not over-extracted, quite soft, charming fruit on the palate, a pretty, attractive wine. (Tasted en primeur) |
