We're French, we don't wait the legal age to drink. :D

Okay, I'm flying over there after COVID.

There is no minimum legal drinking age in France*, the limit is only for buying/selling.

* illegal to get a minor drunk no matter the age, parents must be present if the minor is under 16, minor is under parent supervision and responsibility in any case (source : https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C3%82ge_l%C3%A9gal_pour_la_co... )

Whatever it is, it should be consumed from this pitcher: https://barmagazine.co.uk/wkd-serves-up-traffic-cone-pitcher...

VLC is French, so it's been drinking great wine since it was 18 ;-)

The legal drinking age in France is 18 :)

It's the buying/selling age. There is technically no legal drinking age in France, but rules about minors (parent responsability under rule of "common sense", parent must be present if under 16, illegal to have the minor drunk no matter what).

Eg your parents giving you a small glass of champagne at new year when you're 12 is legal.

It's not that dissimilar in the UK, or at least that was the case.

IIRC the drinking age on private property in the UK is 5 years. So there is a limit :P
