UBY Colombard-Ugni Blanc has its role with summertime sipping but even when it’s cold out can be a nice aperitif, especially with herbed goat cheese. My impression is a cross between NZ Sauvignon Blanc and Portugese Vino Verde. An aromatic white, nearly colorless, with notes of grapefruit, grass, lime, and peach. This is an interesting find for Fort Collins, CO. Armagnac is the usual suspect from this region, not dry white table wine.
