How much do you know about champagne bottles?
History of Champagne Bottle
The development of the champagne bottle has always played an extremely important role in the long history of champagne.
At the end of the nineteenth century, when champagne brewing became popular, the fragile champagne bottle was a "stumbling block" for champagne merchants. On the one hand, this was because the quality of the glass wine bottles produced by private glass workshops was difficult to guarantee, and on the other hand, it was also because the wine growers had not yet fully grasped the rules of bubble manipulation, which made the explosion rate of champagne bottles in the wine cellar very high. A tenth of a champagne will fall apart in the cellar.
Since the second half of the nineteenth century, champagne bottle production has gradually developed from manual workshops to semi-mechanized, which also provides the possibility for the emergence of unified standards. Up to now, the production of champagne bottles has been 100% fully mechanized, and the broken bottle rate has dropped to one in ten thousand. The champagne bottles used today must meet the unified requirements of the French standard association Afnor Group, including capacity, volume, bottle mouth, usage restrictions, color, etc.
Champagne Bottles
Although there are more than a dozen specifications for champagne bottles, the law still stipulates some uniform standards to facilitate subsequent mechanized operations, such as the height, weight, and pressure resistance of the bottle.
#bottle high
By law, the height of a standard 750ml champagne bottle is 30 cm. To put it simply, the standard bottle height of Bordeaux is 28.8 cm, and the champagne bottle is 1.2 cm higher than it. The height of the half bottle is not simply divided by two, its official height is 24.35 cm.
#diameter
Generally speaking, the maximum diameter of a standard champagne bottle is 8.7cm. Therefore, the foam box used when packing champagne is also a special type. We also often come across irregularly shaped wine bottles, which can even exceed 10cm in diameter.
Some wineries want to stand out from the crowd of ordinary bottle-shaped wines, some wineries want to use special shapes to commemorate special wines, and some wineries have applied for patents for special bottle shapes.
# pressure to withstand
We all know that the pressure in a bottle of champagne is about 5-6 atmospheres, while the inside of a general car tire is only 2-3 atmospheres.
Considering the temperature differences that may exist in different environments from bottling to consumers’ tables, for example, the bottle mouth needs to withstand the low temperature of -27°C when the machine removes slag, and the possible collisions during transportation and handling, the law stipulates that champagne bottles must be able to withstand At least 20 atmospheres.
What is the concept of 20 atmospheres? Simply put, when a human being free dives to a depth of 170 meters without special equipment, the pressure he endures is 17 atmospheres. And the atmospheric pressure that the champagne bottle can withstand is stronger than the limit of human free diving, which is enough to prove how strong the champagne bottle that has been researched by modern technology is.
#weight
If you are usually a wine lover, you will definitely find that champagne bottles are much thicker than ordinary wine bottles. Generally speaking, the net weight of an ordinary wine bottle is about 450g, while that of a champagne bottle is twice that, up to 900g! After all, only thick enough can guarantee such a strong air pressure.
However, with the improvement of technology and everyone's consideration of sustainable development, today's champagne bottles are getting lighter and lighter. Since 2009, some glass merchants and wine merchants have jointly launched 835g wine bottles. It can be said that bottle merchants in the Champagne region represent a new height for global glass bottle manufacturers.
How many sizes of champagne bottles are there?
From 20cl mini bottle to 30l jumbo bottle, there are 15 official bottle sizes in the champagne world, and it is the only AOC wine that can use so many sizes. Among them, the most classic bottle types are 750ml Bouteille and 1.5l Magnum.
Keen to launch large bottles of Armand de Brignac Spades A Champagne, when celebrating the 10th anniversary of the winery in 2015, it specially launched a 37.5 L Titan bottle, which is equivalent to 50 standard bottles of champagne, making it the largest bottle in the world so far. champagne.
But Champagne people have also invented some rare extra-large bottles, designed for special occasions. The names of some large-capacity bottles seem to be complicated, because most of them are taken from the names of people in the Bible.
