Being easy to calculate, they adopted than a barrel barril 50 gallons = 300 bottles.
This way a gallon matched 6 bottles.
In fact, that's why even today wine boxes usually have 6 or 12 bottles ".
Wine is culture too!

YOU KNEW WHY
WINE BOTTLES ARE 750 ml...?
Wine bottles are usually 750 ml (75 cl) and not 1.000 litre (1.000 ml). Where does this specification come from?
The capacity of a bottle of wine was normalized and the most insane explanations of this fact emerged, which corresponded to:
- The lung capacity of a glassier;
- Medium consumption in a meal;
- The best capacity to conserve wine;
- Facility of transportation...
- None of this.
It's actually simply a practical organization with a historic foundation:
At that time the main customers of French wine producers were the English. But they never adopted the same system of measures as the French.
The unit of volume of the English was the ′′ imperial gallon ′′ equivalent to 4.54609 litres.
To simplify conversion accounts, they transported Bordeaux wine in 225 litre barrels, i.e. exactly 50 gallons, corresponding to 300 bottles of 750 ml. (75 centuries).
