Wine Bottle

[Mary Dobson]

What is the name of a display wine bottle that holds 20 normal bottles

[woofgang]

if its champagne, nebuchadnezzar

[Britannia]

That name (can't type it!) also applies to Bordeaux and Burgundy.

[myron21]

was nebuchadnezzar a biblical king? I wonder why he was chosen as thename for the bottles?

[MrIxolite]

He could hold a lot of booze

[MrIxolite]

Plus after drinking 20 bottles of wine its the only word you can say

[Britannia]

According to Brewer's, 'Nebuchadnezzar was the greatest king of Babylon and reigned from 604 to 561 B.C. He restored his country to its former prosperity & importance, practically rebuilt Babylon, restored the Temple of Bel, erected a new palace, embanked the Euphrates, and probably built the Hanging Gardens.'

After that little lot, I'm not surprised he needed a drink!
