About This Wine


La Douleur Exquise

Rosé of Syrah

The newest addition to the award-winning La Douleur Exquise family, our Rosé of Syrah was crafted in a traditional Provençal style. Just north of Spain's border, the climate in Pays d'Oc is typical Mediterranean — warm daytime temperatures are moderated by afternoon winds that blow off nearby waters and create an environment that fruit thrives in. This remarkable winemaking appellation boasts stunning wines that showcase incredible flavors and beautiful signature acidity. Lighter in body compared to your average Syrah Rosé, our 2020 vintage is a sure bet. Pair with lighter French cuisine or pop open on the patio for a night to yourself.

Wine Region


Pays d'Oc

If you've vacationed in the south of France, you've probably visited the Pays d'Oc region. Embracing the Mediterranean from Spain to Provence, this region is famed as much for its Grenache, Pinot Noir and Chardonnay as its endless sunshine. Pays d'Oc covers non-AOC wines made across this large, sun-kissed region, known as France's "New World." Far from the regulations of the AOC system, pioneering winemakers headed here to experiment, crafting many now-famous wines that often state their grape variety on the label—not something that was common in France before then. IGP (Indication Géographique Protégée) within France’s wine classification system focuses on controlling regional and geographical origin. The category is less restrictive than the AOC classification and gives winemakers more freedom with style and taste profile when creating wines.
