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.

Any other type of bottle size and the addition of shelves will considerably
reduce the storage capacity.
