World's Largest Bottle vs smallest bottle of Wine



world's largest bottle of wine, as certified by the Guinness Book of World Records, was sold on November 22, 2004. The bottle is 4.5' tall, 4.5' around and weighs 340 pounds. It was sold at an auction of fine and rare wines held by Sotheby's for $56,000 to a Northern New Jersey wine store. The bottle, named Maximus for obvious reasons, was created by Morton's the Steakhouse in partnership with Beringer Vineyards to celebrate the restaurant group's 25th anniversary. Maximus is large enough to hold 173 standard sized bottles of wine or 1,200 glasses, and is filled with Beringer Vineyards 2001 Private Reserve Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon











The super small wine bottle. As certified by the Guinness Book of World Records, Klein Designs created a bottle of wine for retail sale only 3.2 cm tall (1.2 inches). That is tiny. It holds a minute amount of wine, you’d have to drink like 800 of these little bottles to even get a buzz. It’s a terrible idea. What’s more, they range in price from $20 to $90 a bottle
