wine-bottle
Vintner's filled container
A wine-bottle is a glass container designed to hold wine, typically 750 milliliters with a narrow neck and cork or screw-cap closure.
The term appears most often as a modifier describing shape or size: a wine-bottle green, wine-bottle curves.
As a compound, it emphasizes the object's form rather than its contents.
