OUR ULTIMATE SPRING CHEESE board not only highlights the best of
spring pastures—meaning grassy, young, lean cheeses that speak to the
grazing lands—but also harmonizes with the wines you want to enjoy
as winter winds down. We picked a super-smoky lean goat cheese that
adds heft with flavor instead of fat, as well as a melty, ripe combination
of cow cream and goat milk that delivers buttery decadence. Match
them with wines and small bites that offer balance but also open new
notes in each cheese. Check out our four favorite cheeses, plus pairings
to help you get the most out of every creamy bite, at right. (To order any
of these cheeses, visit murrayscheese.com.) —KELSEY YOUNGMAN
