Incase anyone was wondering.....The one on the left is a Magnum (1500ml), the center is a 3L or Double Magnum (3000ml), The next is a standard bottle (750ml - Not usually a single serving unless you are Sean) and a half bottle (375 ml - usually desert wine comes in this size). A standard bottle usually serves 6-8 depending on the amount served - 25 oz per bottle - 4 oz pour gives you six people. If doing a wine tasting usually pour 2-3 oz's, unless you have many wines to try. Then pour less - 1oz. Just thought I would share.

Anita would probably get close.. :r If she opens a bottle, she usually finishes it here. But look out the next day. I'm probably going to get hit for posting this, so enjoy.

Given the number of people who have signed up for the May Herf, I may have a chance to open one of the BIG bottles.....at last! Of course....it may be just me, Anita, and Sean drinking it but that gives a liter each... :al

All I can say is, the bigger the bottle the better. Great pics.
