    Foire aux vins is the best time to go, September/October. Less so the spring time sales.

    Nonsense. I go to France every year with a few family members for a wine trip. We bring a van and generally come back with it loaded to the gills with wine and cheese!

    I would usually have around 25 cases of wine, we have never had any issue with customs coming back. They can't impose a limit on goods purchased as a consumer in another EU state. The guidelines are just that - arbitrary threshold set by someone at a desk somewhere, they have no legal standing as long as you are bringing the stuff back for your own personal use.
