"Given how splendid recent vintages have been, I expected a bit more from Malescot Saint-Exupery, clearly a property on the rebound over the last decade or so. The elegant 2001 is Margaux-like in its fragrant plum, cassis, and floral-scented nose. Medium-bodied, light, but pretty, it offers notes of red and black fruits, supple tannin, and a polished, straightforward finish. Drink it over the next 10-11 years."

"An elegant, delicately-styled offering, Malescot St.-Exupery's 2001 displays classic Margaux finesse. It is a pure, medium-bodied, nicely textured, flavorful, pleasing wine offering notes of red and black currants, cherries, cedar, and spice box. Anticipated maturity: 2005-2015."

"This 2001's appealing aromatics consist of floral, leafy, berry notes with a hint of damp forest. There is sweet tannin, good texture, and a pure, elegant, Margaux-like style. This is an undeniably successful effort. This medium-bodied wine of delicacy, nuance, and subtleness is a candidate for drinking during its first 10-12 years of life. Anticipated maturity: 2004-2014."
