Tasting Notes
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.(Wine Advocate #153 Jun 2004)
