Did You Know? - The Champagne bottle design is born as much out of style as it is necessity. The thick glass with its gently sloping shoulders and a deep punt (the indentation on the underside) are necessary as the pressure inside the bottle is 80-90psi (3 x the pressure inside an average car tire).
This one was a Rehoboam (6 bottles) 4.5 litres. A son of Solomon, Rehoboam (meaning "the clan is enlarged" according to Willard Espy) became king of Judah in 933 BC.
Grandpa Tony gets to be the judge!
Somehow we believe it will be a draw!
