Temo: Re: Just curious..red with beef ..white with chicken ?
Bernice: Oh, I didn't think that foreign people would be interested in drinking french wine ! Well, I hadn't thought to the taxs. I've looked at the conditions : it seems that if I give a invoice justifying that I've paid the TVA (a french tax that we have in our country), the addressee pays nothing else, but it's different depending on the country, and in some countries, it's forbidden to send wine. The problem is that, since a long time, I've very old and very good bottles in my cellar and I've no more bills for them. Anyway, if I buy wine here, the price will always cheaper than if you buy the same in your country. In the next days, I'm going to get more information at the post office. It's difficult to give you names of wine : l'INAO (Institut National des Appellations d'Origine - is the French organization charged with regulating French agricultural products with Protected Designations of Origin, controlled by the Ministry of Agriculture) lists 3420 different wines in France. Tell me before what kind of wine you like to drink : white, rosé, red ? and : do you like it : wooded, fruity, dry, strong ? Or else, do you want a list about the well knowned french wines ?
