I am studying abroad in Italy, but visiting Germany first for a week. I will have about 4 bottles of finger lakes wine to give away as gifts. I want to know if I will be able to get through customs in both countries with this wine in my CHECKED BAG?

A friend is traveling in two weeks to Italy and wants to know if it is legal to ship wine home or if she can pack it in her checked luggage. She’s flying Delta. Anyone know?

I’m making a risotto milanese. The recipe specifies I should use a dry white wine. Does anyone have any suggestions as to what kind of wine specifically I should get? I never drink white wines and so I’m white wine clueless! I don’t want to spend a whole lot of money; I’m cooking with it, after all. Any advice is great!
Thanks everyone!
I ended up with a 10 dollar pinot grigio (that actually came from Italy, wonder of wonders). It seemed like a good compromise. I don’t drink much white wine (just red), so thanks for all your suggestions. :)

I just found out a great co. where I can buy excellent wines from unknown vineyards (Napa origins and from Italy) the prices are great. I would finally be able to stock my wine depository, without breaking me. However, I have to host parties, I ended up becoming a rep!…..LOL

Is there any cost-friendly way to ship wine from Italy to the US? I’ve heard that there are some wineries that ship three bottles for 45 euro. Does anyone know of a winery like this or even a shipping service that can ship a few bottles for around 70-80 euro?

Looking to sign my dad up for a Wine of the Month Club. There are just so many to choose from. He really likes red (will probably select to not receive any white) and likes to try wines from all around (not just one specific region in Italy or California for example). I’m just looking for some suggestions to a quality club with fair prices. If anyone can speak from experience, I’d love to hear. Thank you!

After college I was thinking of going to Italy to work in a restaurant or winery. Work visa stuff is not an issue because I hold an Italian passport, only problem is I am having trouble finding viable restaurant/ winery information before hand . Any help would be great

Dollar for dollar, which country do you think has the best value wine for the price. Think of the major producing areas like California, France, Spain, Italy, South Africa, Chile, Argentina, Australia, New Zealand, Germany etc.

I bought wine in Italy on vacation and I want to send it home. Are there any restrictions I should know about?

I have a flight to London Heathrow next month and I would really like to see the making of wine there. I’ve seen some vineyards in France and Italy and they were great. But I still want to see the ones that may be in London. Is there any and where can I find one?
