" The diamond-studded bottle of Kattus Hochriegl contains sparkling wine from the year 2004 and is worth some €10,000 (US$13,200), said Ernst Polsterer-Kattus, who runs the Vienna-based company with his wife, Maria.

It took a Vienna jeweller 38 hours to glue the diamonds to the bottle, Polsterer-Kattus said, noting that his wife came up with the idea.
