92 points La Revue du Vin de France (Jan 2006).

91 points Jeff Leve (The Wine Cellar Insider): "Fully mature, this lusciously textured wine shows off its dark plums, licorice, black cherry, dark chocolate and floral charms with ease. With enough flesh to please the hedonists, and freshness to give it life, this is the best of older vintages of Grand Pontet I have ever tasted. (Dec 2017)"

90 points Robert Parker: "A renaissance is taking place at this estate, managed by the sister of Gerard and Dominique Becot, the proprietors of Beau-Sejour-Becot. The 2001 is dense, exuberant, fleshy, and flamboyant, exhibiting a dense ruby/purple color along with rich layers of blackberry and cherry fruit, plenty of toasty new oak, and an uncomplicated, in-your-face style that will receive a lot of attention. Cynics may think it is too internationally styled, but there is a lot going on. (6/29/04)"
