"One of St.-Emilion’s tiniest vineyards, Clos St.-Martin’s micro-production should be snapped up should readers see a bottle on retailers’ shelves. Like its 2000 and 1998 siblings, the 2001 is a candidate for “wine of the vintage.” It offers a wonderful crushed stone-like minerality intermixed with a liqueur of raspberries, blackberries, and even a hint of blueberries. The wood is well-concealed beneath lavish concentration, great stature and palate presence, and a full-bodied, layered, noticeably tannic finish. This fabulous effort is another example of a 2001 right bank that is not far off the pace of their prodigious 2000. Anticipated maturity: 2010-2025."

"The complex, medium-bodied 2001 Clos St.-Martin offers up a concoction of black fruits intermixed with liquified minerals. The showy aromatics are followed by a structured, impressive, pure, and defined St.-Emilion with admirable texture and length. Anticipated maturity: 2009-2017."
