In today’s podcast we look at a bit of very recent history. In October, 2021, 45 bottles of wine were stolen from the cellar of a famous upscale restaurant called Atrio, located in the magnificent city of Caceres, Spain. But they weren’t any ordinary bottles of wine; they were some of the finest in the world, and one, in particular, has a unique history of its own, turning it into one of the most expenisve bottles around. This most recent chapter has probably only increased its value. Find out what it was, and how the theft took place.
