Nice wines I have drunk recently - Red or White

[Steady]

I've been a long-time subscriber to Naked Wines, and there is a big range of styles and some very decent wines for a good price point, as you're not dealing with BWS/etc/etc markups. Although, do check the ratings on the wines included in that mixed dozen. You maybe be better off ordering different wines from them and applying that voucher.

When I looked the delivery to my address was a killer

Theme last night was sparkling wine, not champagne but bottle fermented. Quite a diverse and interesting selection.

Crystal Meth Nat Pet sparkling wine?

Crystal Meth Nat Pet sparkling wine?

I think you mean Pet Nat Crystal is actually the grape variety (most common in China) and brought there at some disputed time in history according to Jancis Robinson.

Wine is unfiltered and lees left in the bottle.

Perfect wine with this weather in coughet

Just devine. Soft, smooth, elegant.
I have another '21 and IMO it's not going to improve so it will be gone soon too.
Probably a perfect red for the hot SA summer to come.

Normally I usually order a couple of the Frugal Farmer but this vintage I only went with the Rifle Range and Basket Press- which sadly neither will be ready for consumption this summer. I might have to go and dig out some older bottles of them, along with some Rod and Spur which I have always enjoyed after about 6-7 years of cellaring.

Perfect wine for the Koh Samui weather

Perfect wine for me (being in a small place on the Sunshine Coast) was tonite a Schild Barossa GSM. Purchased two bottles at the local independent, noticed different caps, and saw they were a 2019 and 2021. Obviously, had the 2019 first. Nice drop. The 2021 is truly solid, but unremarkable.

Rather decent example of Pinotage

Last week in Bangkok at Blue by Alain Ducasse. Really really fun lunch with an excellent wine pairing. Slight variation on dessert since MrsDaver6 can't eat chocolate. Personally I prefer when she forgets to mention this and I get two desserts...

Tell us more about the PH essential? I've not heard of it before.
