World’s Largest Champagne Flute

By Alex in Food & Drink, World Records on Jun 11, 2008 at 4:01 pm

I’ve always wondered why wine and champagne makers create those magnum bottles, now I know:to fill the world’s largest champagne flute (16.5 liters or 4.4 gallons), of course!

The glass was 203 cm tall and with a diameter of 46 cm (80 x 18 inches)! It took 11 magnum bottles (16,5 litres) to fill this huge cup; filled with spumante Asti DOGG of course.

11 magnum bottles … they should’ve used just one Melchior bottle!

    It’s like the calf of one of Isabella Rossellini’s beer-filled glass legs in /The Saddest Music In The World/. Complete with hand fondling it.

    Awesome, I want to go for a swim! :)

    FYI: wine ages more slowly in larger bottles.
