Trondheim tasting (blind) Part 1

2007 Horst Sauer, Eschendorfer Lump, Riesling GG Trocken;
Pale straw yellow, some floral and spicy notes, alcoholic touch. Low acidity, a bit fat, high alcohol, warm short finish, unballanced, lacks freshness and complexity. 73 Gewürz?Warm Pinot Gris? (Was difficult to see much riesling in this one)

2000 Baron zu Knyphausen, Erbacher Marcobrunn, Riesling Spätlese;
Lemon yellow, mature, petroleum, apricots, some schistes and peach. Fresh acidity, great balance, some unripe strawberries and raspberries, smokey minerality, more complex than it seems, long finish. 75-82 Vintage, Riesling, Rheingau? Probably 82? (Way younger and shockingly mature for it's age!)

2004 Jaques Frederic Mugnier, Chambolle-Musigny, Les Fuées Premier Cru;
Bright ruby, garnet rim. Very strawberry, some hay and herbs, some spicy notes, quite intence. Fresh acidity, slightly green, a bit astringent, some oak, smokey vanilla touch in the finish, good length. Needs time, 5 years at least. 88 Must be 2004, those spicy notes, maybe Vosne Romanée and premier cru level. (almost had it)

2001 Dessilani Fara;
Ruby with garnet rim, hints of alcohol and very ripe fruit, sweet and jammy plums, pepper. Ok acidity, ripe tannins, drying a bit and somewhat hollow and green. Not quite together. 75 No idea, Refosco with this greeness? (It wasn't, but not very typcal for Nebbiolo either)
