The indicated maximum numbers of bottles which can be stored are
only reference numbers to give you an idea of how many
bottles the appliance can hold (the same as the capacityin litres for
refrigerators).
The numbers were ascertained in tests carried out with a sample bottle:
the bottle for "Bordeaux light 75 cl" (the standard shows the geographic
origin for each bottle shape - Bordeaux, Burgundy, Provence, etc. - and
a type - traditional, heavy, light, flute, etc. - each with its own specific
diameter and height).
Theoretically, in an extreme case, more bottles could be stored by
stacking a single type of bottle without shelves, but a "varied" collection
of wines is made up of a large variety of bottles and the practical
handling of sucha collection limits the number of bottles stored inthe
wine refrigerator. You will probably store fewer bottles than the
maximum number indicated.
Bottle types
Here you see different 75-cl bottles of Burgundy and Bordeaux wine with
different dimensions.
There are of course many other shapes and contents.
There are different methods for storing thebottles depending on the
height, diameter and method of mixing the bottles.
For example, ifyouonly fill the wine refrigerator with Burgundy wine, you
willremain below thequantity calculated for Bordeaux wineby about30
%.
