Isabel S/Blanc made excellent S/Blanc and average P/Noir.
Futhermore 2001 isnt a good vintage. I'ld go for any 2003(extremely low yield due to frost & poor flowering)
I'ld pay slightly more. Recomendation;
Ata Rangi
Te Kairanga Rsv
Fromm "Clayvin"
Felton Rd
Kaituna "Canterbury"
Pegasus Bay Prima Donna
Isabel Pinot Noir

I'll add Herzog, Mt Difficulty (their Target Gully Pinot is first rate), the Chard Farm Finla Mor (for fantastic QPR) and second your Pegasus Bay Prima Donna and Felton Rd choices with an exclamation mark!
