Chestnut is the wine I've always wanted to make, the main wine, in a certain sense the symbol, the icon of our company and, in my heart, of Cortona Syrah. The only wine I made until a few years ago. It is made (like all our wines) only with Syrah grapes grown in our Cortona vineyards, all characterized by very low yields per hectare (maximum 50 quintals from 5,000 plants), rigorously selected, with extreme care, during the entire vintage, in particular before and during the harvest (which for this wine usually takes place in the last ten days of September, in search of perfect phenolic maturity), harvested exclusively by hand in small perforated boxes of 15 kilos each.

Today it is re-proposed in the same blend of merlot and cabernet sauvignon. Passed in French oak barriques and with the same label depicting the Postiglione di Fernet chosen by Giampaolo Perusini - a great horse lover - in 1962.

Large format wines are a popular choice for special occasions and among wine collectors. They come in a variety of sizes and offer a variety of advantages over standard bottles. In this article, we'll explore everything you need to know about large format wines, from their benefits to storage and purchasing.
The advantages of large format wines
Large format wines offer numerous advantages over standard bottles. First, most wines in large formats age better than standard bottles. This is because the amount of oxygen entering the bottle is lower than in standard bottles. Furthermore, the larger capacity of wine in a single container means that temperature fluctuations are less significant, reducing the risk of damage to the wine.
Secondly, large format wines are an ideal choice for special occasions. A large bottle quickly becomes the center of attention and impresses guests. Furthermore, a single large bottle is much easier to manage than many smaller ones. For example, if you're hosting a dinner for a large group, you can use several large bottles to facilitate service.
Large format wine sizes
Large format wines are available in different sizes, each with a specific name:
Magnum : 1.5 litres, equal to two standard bottles
Jeroboam : 3 liters, equal to four standard bottles
Rehoboam : 4.5 liters, equal to six standard bottles
Methuselah : 6 liters, equal to eight standard bottles
Salmanazar : 9 liters, equal to twelve standard bottles
Balthazar : 12 liters, equal to sixteen standard bottles
Nebuchadnezzar : 15 litres, equal to twenty standard bottles
Storage of large format wines
Storing large-format wines is an important aspect to consider. Because these bottles are larger than standard bottles, storage can be more complicated. Most cellars don't have shelves or space suitable for large bottles, so planning ahead is essential.
Additionally, large bottles may take longer to adjust to the ambient temperature in which they are stored. To avoid temperature fluctuations, it's important to store large bottles in a cool, dry place.
Purchase of large format wines
Buying large format wines can be an excellent choice for wine collectors and for special occasions. However, it's important to pay attention to the bottles' origin. Large bottles can be more susceptible to counterfeiting than standard bottles, so it's important to buy from reputable and trustworthy sellers.
What are large format wines?
Large format wine bottles are larger than the standard 750ml bottle. There are numerous larger wine bottle sizes, including the Magnum (1.5 liters), the Double Magnum (3 liters), the Jeroboam (4.5 liters), the Rehoboam (4.5 liters), the Methuselah (6 liters), the Salmanazar (9 liters), the Balthazar (12 liters), and the Nebuchadnezzar (15 liters).
Why choose large-format wines?
There are many reasons to choose a larger bottle of wine over the traditional 750 ml bottles. First, wine in larger formats is more stable than standard bottles, thanks to the greater volume of wine in the bottle and the smaller amount of air coming into contact with the wine.
Secondly, wines in large formats develop more slowly, meaning they can be stored for a longer period without undergoing any alteration. Furthermore, these wines have greater harmony and balance than standard bottles, thanks to the greater contact surface between the wine and the cork.
Finally, wines in large formats are ideal for special occasions, such as weddings, anniversaries, birthdays, or corporate events, because they have a greater visual impact and can satisfy the palates of a greater number of people.
How to choose a large format wine?
Choosing a large-format wine depends on the type of wine and your personal needs. Generally, the wines best suited to larger formats are those that require a longer aging period, such as structured red wines, complex white wines, or sweet dessert wines.
Furthermore, it's important to choose a high-quality wine, because the larger the quantity of wine in the bottle, the greater the chance of defects appearing. It's therefore important to purchase wines in large formats from reputable retailers who offer guarantees regarding the wine's quality and shelf life.
Finally, it's important to consider the number of people attending the event to choose the right bottle size. For example, a Magnum bottle (1.5 liters) is enough for about 10 people, while a Balthazar bottle (12 liters) can satisfy up to 100 people.
In conclusion, large format wines are an excellent choice for special occasions and for wine collectors, thanks to their greater stability, their ability to evolve more slowly, and their ability to please the palates of a larger number of people.
