Dinner with Tom and Deb Mortimer of Le Cadeau: A Mix of Le Cadeau and Other Gems (I Nonni, St. Paul, MN): Medium plus red color. PNP, drank a glass over an hour. From a trio, featuring the '11 Merci Reserve, '16 Trajet Reserve, and '16 Pierre Reserve. Also good in its youth, this is 50% whole cluster and the character and complexity shows here too. Tom and Deb really glow when talking about Pierre Milleman and his collaboration with Steve Ryan on this wine. Very small production with only 2 barrels made. Cherry fruit with a distinctive tart red currant streak, stems, a little richer, a little vanilla, lots of fresh herbs on the palate. I think this is going to take more time to fully flesh out, there's a lot stuffing here and this may be a real gem down the road. Impression 91 currently with a lot of upside potentiial.
