World's Most Unique Wine Collection Stolen
The most unique wine collection in the world has been stolen. In July, the Ulriksdals Wärdshus restaurant in Sweden, lost their complete collection of Bordeaux wines was stolen. The collection featured wine from Château Lafite Rotschild, Château Mouton Rotschild, Château Latour, Château Margaux, Château Haut Brion and Château d'Yquem. The collection of over 600 bottles of wine included almost every vintage from the 18th Century. The oenophile thieves were well-prepared and packed up the 600 wine bottles into boxes and put them into a van outside the garden entrance. They also took the tape from the surveillance and used gloves. The collection is worth close to a $500,000.[via Sveriges]

Bummer. Bet it was an inside job.
Those things don't have serial numbers.

Most unique? Do you mean most rare/valuable? Pretty much all collections are unique, i.e. are one of a kind. It's a common error to make, but to keep it in the header does draw substantial attention to it.

The *18th* century (1700s)? The article you linked to says every vintage from the 20th century (1900s).
