Hello, where can I buy Mont-Clair red wine by the box (3 or 5 liters) in Jomtien (preferred) or Pattaya? (I believe not at 7-11 or Lotus Express?)

 

Can I compare prices online? Is there online ordering and home delivery? ('d love delivery to condo reception, don't mind reputation drop.)

 

If you recommend certain wine-compatible nibbles from that store, I'd be interested too.

 

No Alcohol for Sale 2- 5 PM?

 

Once I wanted to buy a 5 L box of red wine in a huge hi-way side mall near Phetchaburi. But the cashier could not scan it. She looked a the box puzzled and asked me, "This, na? Alcohol?" And they were not allowed to sell alcohol between 2 – 5 pm. She put the box aside.

 

I've seen this enforced in SOME supermarkets and small stores, while others ignore it obviously (incl small western supermarkets in Jomtien). If you do recommend supermarkets – are you aware if they do NOT sell alcohol 2 – 5 pm?

 

Other Red Wine Brands?

 

I find Mont Clair still okayish, and last year the boxes were much cheaper per liter than regular or half bottles. I'll have glass bottles/pitchers to keep the wine for the next evening.

 

I'd try other affordable red wine brands preferredly by the box (stay 3 months), but of course would love to sample a bottle or glass first. My preferred grapes in the west are Primitivo, Sangiovese, Nero d'Avola and some other Italians, NOT Merlot, Cabernet-Sauvignon (meaning I wouldn't drink Mont-Clair in the west).

 

I have sampled eminently drinkable Thai wines in Khao Yai from PB Valley, Khao Yai Winery, Alcidini, but can't afford them on a regular basis. Foreign tipples seem so much cheaper, otherwise I'd love the Thai wines. (Hash cookies, whiskey, beer no option either.)

 

Thanks!

 

Makro, Villa Market, Tops to name but a few.
