  "Sehr tiefes Granat, violette Reflexe. Würziges Bouquet, schwarze Kirschen, schlank im Ansatz, recht konzentriert, Edelhölzer, Tabakblätter, Heidelbeeren. Saftiger, eleganter Gaumen, sehr feine, fast delikate Tannine, wieder noble Holznoten, Kaffee, Pflaumen, gut stützende, noch etwas kernige Tannine, sehr gute Länge. Ein Wein, den man in diesem Stadium leicht etwas unterschätzt."

  "Showing beautifully, the 2001 Calon-Segur is now fully mature, yet should hold at this stage for another decade or two. Beautiful currants and assort dark fruits, notes of lead pencil, tobacco, and forest floor, medium to full body, and integrated, silky tannins all define this elegant 2001 that's a joy to drink today. It's not going to get any better, but it’s a beautifully regal Claret that offers loads of pleasure."

  The Wine Advocate
  "I suspect this 2001 will shut down (as most young Calon-Segurs do), although it appears more forward and evolved than the huge, backward, but totally dormant 2000. The plum/ruby-colored 2001 reveals aromas of damp earth, cranberries, cherries, herbs, and forest floor. While lighter than its older sibling, it is medium-bodied, elegant, and should emerge from its post-bottling sleep in 4-5 years, and drink well for 14-15. Think of it as a lighter-weight 1988 (one of the stars of the vintage)."

  The Wine Cellar Insider
  "Spicy, red and black fruits, with an edge towards the red fruit side side of the style range, tobacco and earthy notes open to lighter, medium bodied, style of Calon Segur that will deliver pleasure earlier than most vintages from this estate."

  Wine Spectator
  "Elegant and spicy, with blackberry and earth character. Medium- to full-bodied, with silky tannins and a medium to long finish. Not quite up to par with the barrel sample, but outstanding. Best after 2006."
