Wine & Cheese Pairing at Post Ranch Inn: Paired with Avalanche Cheese Company (Paonia, Colorado) "Lamborn Bloomers" Soft Ripened Bloomy Rind Goat's Milk. Very very interesting wine. Made very different;y from most wine. Medium bodied, lemon. Lemon, apple, minerality. Nice wine.

A cloudy yellow color, though not quite as cloudy as the Movia "Lunar" of the same vintage. Solid Ribolla nose of citrus and almost ripe peach. Clean, very lemony palate, good acid (almost too much, but better than not enough), notable minerality and a medium length, dry finish. Doesn't show the extent of complexity or texture that the Lunar provided, but still enjoyable and perhaps a better value than the Lunar.

Pretty stuff. Pale and pure, almost like a Chablis with its chalky/oceanic minerality, but not quite as angular. Perhaps something of a lightweight, but so pure and cleansing it doesn't matter.
