Special Formats & Sizes

Special Formats & Bottle Sizes Cartoon Image

Our "Special Formats & Sizes" collection brings together the convenience of Half Bottles and the grandeur of Magnums and Larger Formats, offering unique benefits for aging, presentation, and pure enjoyment. Choosing a format beyond the standard size is not just a matter of volume; it is a strategic decision that affects the wine's evolution and the moment you share it.

The larger formats - Magnum (1.5L), Double Magnum (3L), Jeroboam (3L) and beyond - are the true collector's choice and the centerpiece of any celebration.

  • Superior Maturation: Wines age more slowly and gracefully in larger bottles. Since the amount of oxygen trapped beneath the cork is the same as in a standard bottle, the wine-to-air ratio is much larger. This translates to a longer, more gradual development, often resulting in a more complex and fresher wine over decades.
  • Spectacular Presentation: There is no better way to celebrate a milestone or host a grand dinner than by pouring a Magnum. They instantly elevate the occasion, offering exceptional presentation and service.
  • Investment: Larger formats, particularly Magnums, are highly sought after by collectors and often appreciate in value faster than standard bottles.

 

The 375ml Half Bottle offers unmatched convenience and accessibility, making fine wine feasible for everyday moments.

  • Convenience & Control: Perfect for when you want a glass or two without opening a full bottle. They are ideal for mid-week enjoyment, single diners, or when pairing a different wine with appetizers and main courses.
  • Gifting & Sampling: Half bottles make fantastic, sophisticated gifts and are an excellent way to sample a rare vintage before committing to a larger purchase.
  • Faster Development: Due to the higher wine-to-air ratio (the opposite of the Magnum), Half Bottles often mature slightly faster, allowing you to enjoy tertiary notes of aged wine sooner.

Explore our collection of exceptional wines - from Champagne and Bordeaux to Burgundy and Port - all presented in the perfect, non-standard size for your next occasion.
