12 L Balthazar

These wines are in a 12 L bottle, called a Balthazar. It is equivalent to 16 standard bottles. The Balthazar size is ideal for various larger celebrations. Balthazar is the name of one of the Three Kings who, according to the Bible, visited Jesus after his birth. He is the patron of travelers.

This is a prestigious type of bottle designed for wines with a longer aging potential. The glass of the bottle is thicker. A longer cork is also used, which is intended for wines for longer storage. In some cases, the closures are also sealed with wax.
