The recent addition of the 'right click' white balance feature to Vuescan
has made all the difference.
I shoot an 18% gray card in full sunlight.
Using Vuescan and 'generic color negative' setting, I used that frame to set
my whitepoint.

Color balance pops into near perfection.
I use iCorrect plug-in in PS to tweak colors - usually to bring down the red
saturation a tad.
