I counted 77 bottles (6 cases) or $4000 a bottle. The picture suggests their security for that value of wine does not seem to be much. The owner does not appear concerned by what he said which indicates he is well insured. Wonder what his investment is in the wine as he may have purchased a lot of it many years ago?

Most of the wine has been recovered............in North Carolina..................Charlotte?? (the person, not the city!)

For some reason I can't cut and paste the actual article, but here's the link:

Wish I could help shed some light. The local news is only reporting the finding, no names or connection to the restaurant. Will be interesting to hear the whole story.
