The Danish starred restaurant "Formel B" in Copenhagen is getting back some of the top wines that were recently stolen from its cellar. About one third of the bottles have reappeared in Germany, the police of the Danish capital Copenhagen announced in a tweet according to the news agency dpa.
A wine dealer near Stuttgart had offered the bottles for sale in the name of a private person. She allegedly bought the expensive wines from an unknown third party.
According to the owners of the restaurant, 50 to 60 bottles with a total value of approximately 135,000 euros were stolen. Unknown persons had stolen them during a break-in in the wine cellar of the top restaurant. They had gained access to the wine shop next door, where they broke a huge hole into the wall of the cellar.
