TWO people who stole vintage wines worth €1.6 million from a Michelin-starred restaurant have been jailed.

Caceres Provincial Court has sentenced former Mexican beauty queen, Priscilla Guevara, to four years and her Dutch-Romanian boyfriend, Constantin Dumitru, to four-and-a-half years. They've also been landed with a bill of over €750,000 as compensation to the

Atrio restaurant's insurer.

The star attraction of the 45 bottle haul was a 1806 bottle of Chateau d'Yquem worth over €300,000, but none of the wines have been recovered.

The couple were arrested trying to cross into Croatia from Montenegro following extensive cooperation between Spanish cops and police across Europe.
