Bare-bones impressions from memory:
2008 Donnhoff KREUZNACHER KROTENPFUHL RIESLING KABINETT (Nahe, Germany) -- This was a killer wine: Unbelievable fragrance of ripe, lively fruit, flowers, and stony minerals. Great verve in the mouth. Ripeness, lightness, great buoyant acids. Fantastic. A.
2007 Saintsbury "Toyon Ranch" PINOT NOIR (Carneros, California) -- A soft, full, earthy and savory Pinot Noir. Very much a Nuits-St. George style, but a bit riper and more approachable. B+.
