The 2022 Château Vannières IGP Blanc is a distinctive Southern French white showing ripe pear, white peach and citrus alongside white flowers, fennel, Mediterranean herbs and subtle mineral notes. The warm Provençal setting gives the wine generous fruit and aromatic richness, while its freshness keeps the profile balanced and lifted.
On the palate, it is medium to full-bodied and finely textured, with bright acidity supporting layers of stone fruit, citrus and delicate floral flavours. Ripe peach and pear are complemented by subtle saline, herbal and nutty notes, creating a rounded yet focused palate. A gentle mineral character adds definition through the mid-palate, leading to a dry, long and persistent finish with refreshing acidity.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is a great choice for drinkers who enjoy expressive Southern French whites with texture, aromatic complexity and a savoury edge. The wine is approachable now and should develop additional depth over the next few years. Best enjoyed over the next 3–5 years. Serve lightly chilled with bouillabaisse, grilled Mediterranean fish, butter-poached marron, roast chicken with fennel and thyme, or seared scallops with lemon and brown butter.
