Wine in France?

Fooker

Hello All. I'm organising a large event, would it be worth my while to got to france with say two vans to get the following.

350 Bottles of Wine (1/2 White and Red) of a decent quality
100 Bottles of Prosecco/Champagne of a decent quality.

100 Bottles of Wine (1/2 White and Red) of a better quality
30 Bottles of Prosecco/Champagne of a better quality.

Hey thanks,

It does seem to be alot cheaper, as the quantity is so. Have you any idea how much excise/vat would be on these and the cost of getting wine from cherbourg to galway?

Do your research and buy here and you will come out ahead. For instance Faustino V was on sale in Tesco at the weekend for €7.50 a bottle including all discounts. That cost €9 to €10 in Spain and Spain is cheaper to buy than France.

I'm looking at wine which starts at €2.60, this is a very big bulk buy so will not be buying from Tesco probably!

From recent visiits to France , Lidl France (does not have LIDL on the lable )wine starts at 1.6e a bottle, didn't try it , so cant say what is like
Last week Carrefour had a 2 4 1 on Bordeaux, 4€ for two bottles and it was excellent

Wine is often sold in Fr in 5l or 10l boxes, v easy to transport and cheaper than bottles , and unlike here, just because it's in a box, does not mean it is rubbish

Bubbly, Champs did not seem that cheap,
however Cremant D'limoux or similar bubbly 6 euro p bottle

Try the above link - They recently supplied Red & White wine for a party I was at and it was excellent and very reasonably priced

Crémant du Jura in Aldi @ 9.99 is EXCELLENT STUFF
Good substitute for Champagne, next region to Champagne but cant be called Champagne becuase it's not from the Champagne region but same stuff

Good wine does not mean expensive it depends on your taste. I live in France and I buy table wine 6euro for 4 bottles and its lovely.
