Um, what would it cost me for you to pick up a nice bottle of French wine and ship it to me? I've been salivating at the idea of getting my hands on a bottle of something rare from l'un des meilleurs établissements vinicoles dans le monde. Dieu merci pour le traducteur google.
That could be arranged. Not sure what postage would cost though. It might end up cheaper to source it from a boutique wine distributor in the US. What kind of wine are you thinking? I'm not much of an authority on the reds but I do know my champagne if that interests you. I lived in that region and worked with a guy who runs a champagne bar, and did plenty of tasting. I could get an excellent bottle from a lesser known vigneron for about 20euro, a bottle of the big name stuff (Moet, Veuve Cliquot, Mercier etc) for about 25-30euro, or the real duck's nuts of the mass produced champagnes for between 50-80 euro. Of course if you're talking about something "rare" that could mean anything from 80 upwards.
dude.
