Ever wonder if you could bottle your wine in a bigger bottle than the standard 750mL? Did you know that the larger bottles have specific names? Below is your handy-dandy guide to larger bottle sizes! (we carry magnums, if you're interested. ;))
Standard (.75 liters) 1 bottle
Magnum (1.5 liters) 2 bottles
Jeroboam (3 liters) 4 bottles
Rehoboam (4.5 liters) 6 bottles
Methuselah (6 liters) 8 bottles
Salmanazar (9 liters) 12 bottles
Balthazar (12 liters) 16 bottles
Nebuchadnezzar (15 liters) 20 bottles
Imagine that! Your entire barrel of wine could be put into approximately 2 Balthazar bottles! That'd be an easy bottling party huh?
Mmmm... I'd like a Salmanazar bottle of New Zealand Pinot Noir please....... :)
