A woman aged 55 and a 48-year-old man are suspected.

At Christmas, lovers of fine wines will obviously also get their money's worth. Meinl am Graben sells significantly more cognac bottles in the price range between 3000 and 4000 euros. With around 20 bottles sold before Christmas, this of course remains a minority program.

Investigators in the southern Italian city of Naples have excavated a production facility for counterfeit luxury champagne and olive oil. In the basement of a residential building near the city, the police had found a label for champagne from “Moet & Chandon”, the police said on Monday.

The brand belongs to the French luxury goods group LVMH. More than 770 bottles of champagne and around 800 bottles of olive oil were confiscated, as well as alcohol ﴾ethanol﴿.

A woman aged 55 and a 48-year-old man are suspected. With the products, the two would have made more than 120,000 euros profit on the market, as the investigators estimated.
