Nice family dinner last night. Betsy marinaded some split game hens in
a Vietnamese accented sauce, we grilled the chicken along with some
asparagus and corn, served with rice w/furikake (and a chili/lime/nuoc
mam dipping sauce). Wine was the 2007 Donnhoff Oberhauser Leistenberg
Kabinett. Lime, green crisp apples, flowers, slate, blood oranges.
Fairly sweet for Kabinett but no softness to these acids, nervy and
bright. Excellent wine, great bargain in low $20s, A-

Grade disclaimer: I'm a very easy grader, basically A is an excellent
wine, B a good wine, C mediocre. Anything below C means I wouldn't
drink at a party where it was only choice. Furthermore, I offer no
promises of objectivity, accuracy, and certainly not of consistency.*
