Domaine la Ligiere, "Le Chemin Blanc" Vacqueyras Blanc 2022

92 points Wine Advocate
"Mainly Clairette and Roussanne, with smaller amounts of Grenache Blanc and Viognier, the 2022 Vacqueyras Le Chemin Blanc may be the finest vintage of this cuvée to date. Notes of ripe pear, apricot and peach abound on the nose, while the medium to full-bodied palate is plump and fleshy, moving into ripe citrus notes on the lingering finish."

90 points Jeb Dunnuck
"A blend of 40% each Clairette and Roussanne with the balance Grenache Blanc and Viognier, the 2022 Vacqueyras Le Chemin Blanc has a gorgeous bouquet of pineapple, honeyed citrus, and white flowers that carries to a medium-bodied white with a balanced, layered texture, good overall richness, and a clean, dry finish. Despite coming from a hot, dry year, this shows solid restraint and freshness."

90 points James Suckling
"This full-bodied, creamy and waxy wine has the weight and volume we expect from this appellation, but the wet stone and candied lemon freshness neatly lifts the finish. A cuvee of clairette, roussanne, grenache blanc and viognier from organically grown grapes. Drink now."

Vinous Reverie Notes
Ligiere's best-in-appellation Vacqueyras Blanc. White wine represents a small single-digit percentage of the overall Vacqueyras volume and this single-site beauty is the wine owners, Elizabeth and Phillipe, are most proud of. It has the complexity and depth of a great Chateauneuf Blanc.
