|
|
Do the customs see French red wine in the same view as spirits?
Meaning only 2 litres allowed to take with you entering the country...
No, I'm not an alcoholic, far from, but...you know...
I've just been told that getting some decent French (not Chilean or something, I'm afraid that won't do...) wine is kind of impossible in St.-Petersburg now....
Or if anybody knows where I could get decent wine there there that would also be a good solution I presume....
Or workarounds for customs....
Thanks. |

| Last year when I was there I found this great store on Lermontovskii Prospekt just near the corner with Rimskii Korsokov called Ароматныи Мир or AM. they had a great selection of French wines, especially reds. If you get stuck have a look there. |

Amazing, even better knowledge than the native St.-Petersburgers in this forum! |
