London, Aug.2 : A bottle of wine, said to have been retrieved from the wine cellar of Nazi dictatator Adolf Hitler, is to be auctioned this month.
Sherborne, a rare bottle of 1937 Moët et Chandon champagne, was brought back to Britain by an allied soldier who raided Hitler's "personal stock" of wine and kept the bottle as a memento, reports The Times.
The unnamed veteran handed the bottle to Nigel Wilson, a solicitor, 15 years ago as part-payment for some legal work.
Wilson, 62, said: "I don't even know if it is OK to drink, but I decided to sell it and we will see what it is worth then."
