Domaine Pierre Ussegliu Lirac Blanc 2023 (750mL)

White wine from Lirac sits in the southern Rhône, just across the river from Châteauneuf-du-Pape, and it tends to lean on the warm-climate white grapes of the region (Grenache Blanc, Clairette, Roussanne and their relatives) for a style that is generous and textural rather than sharply aromatic. This 2023 from Domaine Pierre Usseglio & Fils works in that idiom, a southern Rhône white built more around weight and roundness on the palate than zippy acidity.
