The global standard bottle size for wines, spirits and liqueurs emerged as 75cl (750ml). In North America and much of the world it still is. However, in 1990 the European Union (EU) introduced a ridiculous piece of legislation which complicated this by dictating that spirit and liqueur bottles have to be 70cl while wine and soft drink bottles remain 75cl. Follows our guide to standard bottle sizes Bottle size legislationOverly complicated and restrictive legislation forces EU spirits producers to produce 70cl bottles for the EU market and 75cl bottles for export to North America so making it expensive for boutique distillers to export. Obviously the same is true for North American distillers wanting to make their products available in the E.U. In November 2002 a European Commission working paper concluded that the EU is over-regulated regarding pack sizes so limiting consumer choice. The USA mandatory spirits bottle sizes are (since 1 January 1980): 50 ml The European Union mandatory spirits bottle sizes are (since 1 January 1990): 100 ml Spirits & Liqueur Bottle SizesSmall miniature EU = 20ml Wine & Champagne Bottle SizesEighth = 100ml The store will not work correctly in the case when cookies are disabled. Wine Bottle Sizes and Storage OptionsWines and Champagne come in a variety of bottle sizes with names relating to the size of the bottle and some sizes have even more specific names related to the shape of the bottle or what might be contained within the bottle. The size of the bottle can also determine if you need standard wine racks or a Magnum Wine Bottle Rack. Wine Bottle Sizes Split or Piccolo - 187ml is equal to 1/4 of a standard bottle of wine or a single glass of wine. Split bottles are generally about 7 1/2" tall and 2 3/8" in diameter. Demi or Half - 375ml is equal to half a standard bottle of wine or about 2 glasses. Demi bottles are usually about 9 1/2" tall and 2 1/4" to 2 3/8" in diameter. Standard - 750ml is the standard size for a wine bottle. A standard bottle contains about 5 glasses worth of wine and varies from 11 1/2" to 13" in height and can have a diameter ranging from 2 7/8" to 3 1/2". There are several different shapes of standard wine bottles often relating to what is contained within them or the region the wine comes from. These include:
Magnums- 1.5L is equivalent to 2 standard bottles of wine and are usually about 14" tall with a diameter around 4". You may also hear 1.5L bottles called Turley or Champagne bottles which are names that relate to the vineyard or the contents. Did You Know? How many glasses are in a bottle of wine?

Best Wine Racking Based on Bottle Dimensions & SizeWhen it comes to wine storage, you want to choose a wine rack that will properly store your bottles. Unfortunately, wine bottle sizes & dimensions are not always consistent. The most common wine bottle dimensions are 3 – 3.2 inches in diameter & roughly 12 inches in height. Champagne bottles are slightly larger, closer to 3.5 inches in diameter & 12.5 inches in height. Your favorite wines come in different shapes and sizes, so it’s important to choose racking that will best store your collection. All of our wine racking is designed to comfortably store most standard 750ml bottles. We also have created specialty racks for storing splits and magnum or larger (our Prestige Series Wine Racks collection and our Custom racking line). Alternatively, for storing a wide variety of bottles, our Wine Cellar Cubes and Wood Case Bins are always a great solution. Choosing a MaterialWe offer wine racks in traditional wood as well as modern metal (powder-coated stainless steel & milled aluminum) and acrylic. All materials are designed to withstand the temperatures and humidity requirements of a typical wine cellar. It really comes down to your style choice. When it comes to Wood Wine Racks, we offer several species options. All of our racks are made of the species of wood listed (not some softer wood with a stain applied to give it the color of a particular species). All of our cabinetry pieces are made from marine-grade real-wood veneer plywood with either real wood trim or real wood edge banding (depending on the rack). We've chosen our wood species because they do not require a stain or finish to last the lifetime of your cellar, but we do offer a variety of stains and finishes upon request. About Our Wood Choices
The stains and finishes that we use are low V.O.C. and are hand-applied before rack assembly. Is 375 ml Half a bottle?Size: 375 ml, holds ½ standard bottle or 2.5 glasses of wine
