I do believe they are White. As we have already seen a card (the White Legendary Vampire) that makes 1/1 Vampire tokens with lifelink, and those tokens are white. I don't think we have ever seen a set that has made two tokens that are the exact same except for the colour.
So four mana for three power and toughness with lifelink spread across three bodies seems reasonable. Especially when it is a relevant subtype. Will have to see how much vampire support there is in this set.

Avacyn Restored did it twice - 1/1 Human with no abilities existed in red and in white; 1/1 Spirit with Flying existed in both white and in blue.

While Avacyn Restored's spirit tokens fit the bill for this uncommon design choice, Thatcher Revolt makes red human tokens with haste, while the white human tokens are vanilla.

Shadowmoor had both green/white elf warrior tokens, and mono-green elf warrior tokens.
This isn't bad. It's just...typical. Unless we see some sort of Drogskol Reaver-like card, or a "bad Necro", I'll rate it a B-.

Card advantage is not the same thing as card draw. Something for 2B cannot be strictly worse than something for BBB or 3BB. If you're taking out Swords to Plowshares for Plummet, you're a fool. Stop doing these things!

So, basically, Captain's Call, but 2WB instead of 3W, and you get lifelink
...and you get flying, and a different creature type.
So besides costing 4, being a sorcery and making tokens there is nothing "basically" the same...with your parameters every 4CMC creature with flying is "basically" the same :D.
Reminds me of:
Mr. Burns: "I wonder if this Homer Nixon is any relation?"
Mr. Smithers: "Unlikely, sir. They spell and pronounce their names differently."
Now, this is hilarious.
I was actually simply discounting vampire tribal unless it becomes a thing in Standard. If vampire tribal becomes a thing, we'll talk.

Yeah I was looking at "tribal" in current standard and vampires are mostly rotating out, with only two major vampires left from the remaining sets left in rotation. Gifted Aetherborn and Yahenni, Undying Partisan being those two vampires. The entire tribal in standard will probably be isolated to Ixalan block unless some more show up in the following return to Dominaria. Zombies is looking beastly right now due to a lot of good support already existing.

Ok I stand corrected, WotC have done it before.
But yeah seems like the translation does say white vampire tokens.

That's a shame.
WB tokens would have worked great with Deathbringer Liege.
Reprint Stasis!

These Vampires don't fly.
I wonder if there is a RPS relationship among the tribes? Vampires -> Pirates -> Merfolk -> Dinosaurs -> Vampires?
Now, this is hilarious.
