The best place to store your champagne just might be the bottom of the Baltic Sea. That's where, on July 6, a team of Swedish divers exploring a shipwreck found a cache of what are believed to be 230-year-old bottles of Veuve Clicquot—still drinkable, tasting "fabulous" according to a wine expert, and worth at least $69,000 a pop.
