Unremarkable wine with low-key aroma. Slips down easily enough until the excessive charge of tannins exert their grip. (JR)

More disappointing from bottle than it was from cask, the 2001 Croizet-Bages reveals notes of toasty new oak, but little fruit. The herbaceous aromatics are followed by a clipped, lean, austere mid-palate, and a dry, angular finish. After the successful 2000, I had hoped this chateau was going to live up to its official classification, but the 2001 is a letdown.

Mid crimson. Light, aromatic with definite green notes. Underripe fruit and a certain dilute quality. No! (JR)

Rather green and diluted. Hard to like much. 12,500 cases made. James Suckling, Wine Spectator 2004.
