There is some bug in MS-DNS in Windows 2008 R2 that causes it to
randomly get a brain crap on individual domains. I don't know the
details, but it's bit a few people on this list. Symptoms seem to
match yours. Try the command
dnscmd /clearcache
on the server. If that clears the trouble, you need the hotfix. I
*think* this is it:

but I might have it confused with some other bug in MS-DNS.

NSLOOKUP is brain damaged. (The biggest problem is that it can give
ambiguous error messages.) Get DIG from the ISC BIND suite and get in
the habit of using it for DNS diagnostics.
