I'd go with Ranger. While Geralt is a lot like a modern D&D character in that he doesn't really have any low stats, the closest things he has to an average stat are Intelligence and Charisma. (Note that I also believe that stats are expressions of what a character does, not their innate capabilities. A character can be smart, but still have a lower Intelligence score if their training hasn't been focused on leveraging their intelligence.)
He's certainly not dumb, or close to it, but his knowledge base is focused on monsters and environmental threats, not on being widely well-read or scholarly. Likewise, he tends to attract loyalty far more because of his deeds than because of natural charm or persuasiveness, and the "looking like Henry Cavill" bonus doesn't apply to most versions of the character.
Ranger core with a custom subclass makes the most sense for a Str/Dex/Wis focused character with moderate amounts of magic and lots of environmental survivalbility and hunting/tracking abilities. The custom subclass can give spells that mimic sign use, low level spells and cantrips primarily, and some of the custom mutagen abilities could be either a custom racial ability or a moderate level subclass ability.
