Last of the current Garagiste "deals" bottles I have from these guys. Light blueberry and raspberry with a nice balanced mineral streak kinda acting as a backbone. Mature.

Its funny - we had a "thin/light/mineral" version of a 2016 French PN last night and tonight we decided to open an American version of the same. Better aromatics than the French, a little more "stuffing", touch more tannins, slightly less minerality. Decent balance.
Why the same score then? Because in the end they were both delightful, just two slightly different approaches to the same place.

Tasted and reviewed last January, this bottle was pretty much the same blueberry special as my last one. Not bad, "a type", but also not particularly worth seeking out imho. Questionable QPR, depending on whether or not you can score "a deal".
