Strub, Rheinhessen (Germany) Silvaner Trocken 2021

 Silvaner is known mostly as an ordinary grape except in parts of Alsace, just as Pinot Grigio is usually ordinary except for Collio and other parts of northeast Italy.  But Silvaner can also produce charming if seldom outstanding wines.  That is the case here – floral nose of green fruits followed by a blend of spicy peaches with an underlying hint of white cheese and a few dusty tannins in the finish.  The kind of wine to take on a spring picnic to have with fresh-cut fruits.
