Tasting Notes: The Tardieu-Laurent Vacqueyras Blanc 2022 presents a bright, pale gold hue. The nose is expressive, offering aromas of white peach, citrus zest, and subtle floral notes. On the palate, it is medium-bodied with a harmonious balance of ripe fruit and crisp acidity. Flavours of stone fruit and a touch of white pepper lead to a clean, mineral-driven finish.
