Bordeaux wine and bottles for other wines are produced in a wide array of wine bottle sizes and shapes too. Larger bottle sizes are well suited to longer aging of Bordeaux wine or other wines. It is a known fact that wine from larger formats age more slowly and possibly even develop more complexity and nuances than wines from smaller bottles. This is due to the smaller amount of air that resides between the cork and the wine. Interestingly, you will note that many of the unique names for wine bottle sizes were named after Biblical characters which the exact reason is unknown. For example:
-Jeroboam: “First King of The Kingdom” -Methuselah: “Oldest Man” -Salmanzar: “Assyrian King” -Balthazar: “One of The Wise Men” -Nebuchadnezzar: “King of Babylon” -Solomon: “King Solomon, the wisest of all men, built the Temple in Jerusalem” -Melchizede: “Name of several priesthoods in different religions including the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints” This is a list of the most frequently used wine bottle sizes. Other sizes like 1000 ml 500 ml and 250 ml are some of the unique sizes available. It is important to know, some wine bottle sizes, usually larger formats are only used for Champagne. -Split: 187ml (1/4 bottle) -Half Bottle: 375ml -Standard: 750ml -Magnum: 1.5L (2 bottles) -Jeroboam or Double Magnum: 3L (4 bottles) -Rehoboam: 4.5L (6 bottles) -Methuselah or Imperial: 6L (8 bottles) -Salmanzar: 9L (12 bottles) -Balthazar: 12L (16 bottles) -Nebuchanezzar: 15L (20 bottles) -Melchoir: 18L (24 bottles) -Solomon: 20L (26 bottles) -Sovereign 25L (33 bottles) -Primat or Goliath 27L (36 bottles) -Melchizedek 30L (40 bottles) -Maximus 130L (173 bottles) -A Barrel of Wine 227L, (300 bottles) The Current World Record for the Largest is held by Wang Chen Wines in Liaoning, Northern China is 1850 Liters and is 15 feet high, four times the previous record of 490 liters.

4722 Merlot, Duckhorn, Napa Valley 1996 1350 Large Format Cont’d 9-Litre Bottles Port Wine Port wine (also known as Vinho do Porto, Porto, and often simply port) is a Portuguese fortified wine produced exclusively in the Douro Valley in the northern provinces of Portugal. It is typically a sweet, red wine, often served as a dessert wine, and comes in dry, semi-dry, and white varieties. Fortified wines in the style of port are also produced outside Portugal, most notably in Australia, South Africa, Canada, India, Argentina, and the United States. Under European Union Protected Designation of Origin guidelines, only the product from Portugal may be labelled as port or Porto. In the United States, wines labelled "port" may come from anywhere in the world, while the names "Dão", "Oporto", "Porto", and "Vinho do Porto" have been recognized as foreign, non-generic names for wines originating in Portugal. Port is produced from grapes grown and processed in the demarcated Douro region. The wine produced is then fortified by the addition of a neutral grape spirit known as aguardente in order to stop the fermentation, leaving residual sugar in the wine, and to boost the alcohol content. The fortification spirit is sometimes referred to as brandy but it bears little resemblance to commercial brandies. The wine is then stored and aged, often in barrels stored in a cave (pronounced "ka-ve" and meaning "cellar" in Portuguese) as is the case in Vila Nova de Gaia, before being bottled. The wine received its name, "port", in the latter half of the 17th century from the seaport city of Porto at the mouth of the Douro River, where much of the product was brought to market or for export to other countries in Europe. The Douro valley where port wine is produced was defined and established as a protected region, or appellation in 1756, making it the oldest defined and protected wine region in the world. Chianti (1716) and Tokaj (1730) have older demarcation but no regulation associated and thus, in terms of regulated demarcated regions, Porto is the oldest. 4745 Cabernet Sauvignon, Grgich Hills, Rutherford 1993 3300 Dessert Wines 4798 Sauternes, Chateau Climens, Bordeaux, France 1995 (375ml) 70 4852 Sauternes, Chateau d’Yquem, Bordeaux, France 1999 (750ml) 750 4850 Sauternes, Chateau Sigalas-Rabaud, France 1990 (750ml) 195 4783 Chateau Tirecul la Graviere “les Pins”, Monbazillac Fr ‘03 (500ml) 45 4784 Cht. Tirecul la Graviere “Cuvee Cht.”, Monbazillac Fr ‘03 (500ml) 100 4782 Vin Santo, Villa Calcinaia, Tuscany, Italy (375ml) 115 The Vin Santo is produced from white grapes Trebbiano and Malvasia naturl dried in an airy room, along with a small amount of red grapes of the variety Canaiolo. During the drying the grapes are checked and cleared of rotten grapes. Around February the grapes have reached a level of about 32/36 ° Brix and are pressed and transferred into small 55-liter kegs. In this way, the juice is fermented with wild yeasts. The vin santo is aged in oak barrels for about 7 years with few topping before being bottled. The wine has an intense amber color with resinous aroma of dried apricots and the taste is fruity and velvety on the palate with a balanced sweetness that goes well with alcohol and acidity. The Vin Santo is best enjoyed with Chef Oliva’s foie gras, cheeses and pastries.

Scotch whisky is divided into five distinct categories: single malt Scotch whisky, single grain Scotch whisky, blended malt Scotch whisky (formerly called "vatted malt" or "pure malt"), blended grain Scotch whisky, and blended Scotch whisky. All Scotch whisky must be aged in oak barrels for at least three years. Any age statement on a bottle of Scotch whisky, expressed in numerical form, must reflect the age of the youngest whisky used to produce that product. A whisky with an age statement is known as guaranteed-age whisky. The first written mention of Scotch whisky is in the Exchequer Rolls of Scotland, 1495. A friar named John Cor was the distiller at Lindores Abbey in the Kingdom of Fife. Scotch Speyside
12yrs. 16/gl 18 yrs. 36/gl 21 yrs. 55/gl
The regions of Scotch whisky Scotland was traditionally divided into four regions: The Highlands, Lowland, Islay, and Campbeltown. Speyside, encompassing the Spey river valley in north-east Scotland, once considered part of the Highlands, has almost half of the total number of distilleries in Scotland within its geographic boundaries; consequently it is officially recognized as a region unto itself. Campbeltown was removed as a region several years ago, yet was recently re-instated as a recognized production region. The Islands is not recognized as a region by the Scotch Whisky Association (SWA) and is considered part of the Highlands region.
The Islands, an unrecognized sub-region includes all of the whisky-producing islands (but excludes Islay): Arran, Jura, Mull, Orkney and Skye — with their respective distilleries: Arran, Isle of Jura, Tobermory, Highland Park and Scapa, and Talisker.
Islay has eight producing distilleries: Ardbeg, Bowmore, Bruichladdich, Bunnahabhain, Caol Ila, Kilchoman, Lagavulin and Laphroaig. Balvenie “The Handcrafted Malt” Rich,luxuriously smooth and underpinned by a distinctive honeyed character. 12 yrs. 15/gl 15 yrs. 22/gl 21 yrs. Portwood 45/gl

Extremely Rare 25/gl Scotch cont’d Blended / vatted malt Blended malt whisky formerly called vatted malt or pure malt (terms that are now prohibited in the SWR 2009)—is one of the least common types of Scotch: a blend of single malts from more than one distillery (possibly with differing ages). Blended malts contain only malt whiskies—no grain whiskies—and are usually distinguished from other types of whisky by the absence of the word 'single' before 'malt' on the bottle, and the absence of a distillery name. To qualify as a blended malt, the mixed single malt whiskies are matured in the barrel for one year, after which the age of the vat is that of the youngest of the original ingredients. A blended malt marked "8 years old" may include older whiskies, with the youngest constituent being eight years old before vatting. Johnnie Walker Green is an example of a blended malt. As of November 2009, no Scotch whisky could be labelled as a vatted malt or pure malt, with Scotch Whisky Regulations requiring them to be labelled blended malt instead. Blended Scotch whisky constitutes about 90% of the whisky produced in Scotland. Blended Scotch whiskies contain both malt whisky and grain whisky. They were initially created as an alternative to single malt whiskies, which some considered too harsh. Producers combine the various malts and grain whiskies to produce a consistent brand style. Notable blended Scotch whisky brands include Bells, Dewar's, Johnnie Walker, Whyte and Mackay, Cutty Sark, J&B, The Famous Grouse, Ballantine's and Chivas Regal..
