Jeb Dunnuck awarded the wine 96 points, while Robert Parker and Wine Spectator both scored it 94 points, praising its purity, balance and outstanding ageing potential.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBen’s Recommendation:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA superb Côte-Rôtie that beautifully balances power and elegance. Complex, layered and built for the cellar, it pairs wonderfully with roast lamb, venison, beef fillet, game birds and truffle dishes. While impressive with a long decant today, it will reward patience and should evolve gracefully through 2045 and beyond.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eInfo\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003ctable width=\"846\" style=\"height: 141.059px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 22.5521px;\"\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"height: 22.5521px; text-align: center; width: 246.688px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCOUNTRY\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22.5521px; text-align: left; width: 297.312px;\"\u003eFrance\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5833px; text-align: left;\"\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"height: 19.5833px; text-align: center; width: 246.688px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePRODUCER\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 19.5833px; width: 297.312px;\"\u003eBenjamin et David Duclaux\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 39.1667px; text-align: left;\"\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"height: 39.1667px; text-align: center; width: 246.688px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVARIETY\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 39.1667px; width: 297.312px;\"\u003eSyrah\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 20.5903px; text-align: left;\"\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"height: 20.5903px; text-align: center; width: 246.688px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSTYLE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 20.5903px; width: 297.312px;\"\u003eRed Wine\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5833px; text-align: left;\"\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"height: 19.5833px; text-align: center; width: 246.688px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVINTAGE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 19.5833px; width: 297.312px;\"\u003e2022\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5833px;\"\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"height: 19.5833px; text-align: center; width: 246.688px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSIZE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 19.5833px; text-align: left; width: 297.312px;\"\u003e750ml\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Benjamin et David Duclaux","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51317107097915,"sku":"DD3322","price":315.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0574\/6779\/7699\/files\/2022BenjaminetDavidDuclauxCoteRotieMaisonRougeSyrah.jpg?v=1780684876"}],"url":"https:\/\/winemore.com.au\/collections\/benjamin-et-david-duclaux.oembed","provider":"Wine More Cellars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
