    Yes that,s what we do.
    They say about 100 bottles or there about.
    But bring loads back , as much as you can
    They can,t take it off you even if they want to
    The 100 bottles is only a guide.
    Under EU law you can bring back as much as you want , say it,s for you and your wife.
    For your own consumption
    That you only go over every 2 or 3 years.
    They will be mad and pissed off but fuck them.
    Now if you did the same the next week and they twigged it then they can take the lot off you
