jeroboam
Four bottles combined
A jeroboam is an oversized wine bottle holding three liters—equivalent to four standard bottles.
The term is used primarily for champagne and Burgundy wines: They uncorked a jeroboam to celebrate the merger.
Larger formats continue upward through rehoboam, methuselah, and beyond. (Capitalized Jeroboam is a biblical king.)
