"Honeyed orange, dried apricot, white flowers, and brioche all shine in the 2023 Vacqueyras Vieilles Vignes Blanc, which is medium-bodied and has a nicely balanced, concentrated mouthfeel, integrated acidity, and a great finish. Based on 70% Clairette, 20% Roussanne, and 10% Viognier and aged in Burgundy-shaped barrels with lees stirring after malolactic fermentation, it's a ripe, textured, yet balanced, serious white that will shine on the dinner table. Drink 2026-2027."
