If you have the money, you can get decent imports.

We aren't that rich to enjoy a medoc, fluerie or a haut-medoc without
spending a reasonable sum of money. So we're quite content with our
Reveilos and Grovers.

We know that very well. I think there is a growing market for wine in
India and things will be much better in a decade or so.

I don't think so. Did you recently try the Teveilo Syrah reserve? It is

available in Bangalore. And yes, I do beg friends to bring me some wine
from outside. But it doesn't always happen.
