Types of bottle:
We see here 4 kinds of 75 cl wine bottles: Burgundy and Bordeaux wine bottles of different dimensions. There are many others
of all shapes and sizes. You will note the storage differences depending on bottle heights, diameters and alternating position
method.
For example, if a wine cellar is loaded only with Burgundy wine bottles, there will be approximately 30% fewer bottles than the
initial quantity calculated for Bordeaux bottles.

Announced capacity
The announced capacity is the maximum capacity calculated with a defined number of shelves, which varies according to the
model. This standard is calculated with 75cl bottles of the traditional Bordeaux type. Any other type of bottle size and the
addition of shelves will considerably reduce the storage capacity.
Below is the loading plan with the maximum announced capacity.
The capacity of your wine cellar is measured according to the EN62552 standard.
