Large Formats
Our large format bottles are the epitome of luxury. Each year we create a limited number of large format bottles of our "Sympa Cabernet Sauvignon" and "Grand Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon."
More than just visually stunning (and fun!), large format bottles offer unparalleled benefits for wine aging thanks to their lower ratio of air to liquid. This allows the wine to evolve slowly and gracefully, ensuring a truly unforgettable wine for years to come. Because our wines are also richly generous at early ages, a large format bottle is also great for celebrating with friends and family on near-term special occasions
Magnums contain 1.5 liters of wine, the equivalent of two normal bottles of wine. Our Sympa and Grand Reserve magnums have black wax capsules, and Grand Reserve bottles are etched and hand-painted.
Our three-liter bottles (called double magnums) are etched and hand-painted with black wax capsules and come in a collectable wooden box for storage or display. This bottle is the equivalent of four normal bottles of wine.
Each year we make a few six-liter bottles (called Imperials for Bordeaux-style bottles) that are etched and hand-painted with black wax capsules. This bottle is the equivalent of eight normal bottles of wine. This bottle comes in a collectable wooden box for storage or display.
Whether destined for your cellar, a festive gathering or as a gift to someone special, these wines are sure to leave a lasting impression. To secure your desired large format bottles, simply email info@sthelenawinery.com or call our winery directly 707.967.9463.
