Silvaner - The Underdog White from Germany

Justin and I tried Graf von Schonborn Silvaner with Cauliflower and Garbanzo Beans with a lemongrass honey and coconut infusion.  

With a star bright complexion and pale straw color, the silvaner from Graf von Schonborn showed perfume and powerful fruit aromas of star fruit and a zesty lemon character.  With a slightly lighter palette of fruit than a typical riesling of the same area, this wine defines itself with its minerality and delicate tropical fruit flavors.  The pairing was nice,  however, if I would have actually used a little coconut milk in the sauce I think the creamy texture against the vibrant acidity would have made me a  happy camper.
