這時候1.5L大瓶裝(Magnum Bottle)便是不二之選，大瓶裝能讓你盡可能更長時間地享受同一瓶酒，而不必一直開新酒，又可以確保每位客人都有一杯美酒在手。

3. Age-Worthy 更具收藏價值

Magnum bottling is one of the ways to store and preserve fine wine. Many famous wines are bottled in Magnum because they age better. The amount of air retained by Magnum is the same as that of a 750ML standard wine bottle. The oxygen stored in a large Magnum bottle is relatively reduced, which greatly slows down the oxidation rate, keeps freshness for longer, and is more resistant to aging and retain more fruitfulness on the palate.

迷思：Magnum大瓶裝更「好飲」？

Have you heard that Magnum drinks better in large bottles? It is because Magnum bottle is doubled in size, while the cork remains the same size as a standard bottle which reduces oxygen penetration into the bottle. The cork cap of the wine bottle is not completely sealed, so the bottle will "breathe" over time, slowly allowing oxygen to penetrate into the wine, making the taste of the wine in the bottle more mellow and smooth, and developing a more unique aroma.

Why not drink with friends and see if the Magnum bottle really has the legendary upgraded enjoyment!

你聽說過Magnum大瓶裝更好飲嗎？ 據說因為Magnum瓶子的尺寸增加了一倍，而軟木塞的尺寸仍與標準瓶相同，能減少氧氣滲透到瓶子裡。酒瓶的木塞蓋不是完全密封的，故此瓶子會隨著時間的推移「呼吸」，慢慢讓氧氣滲透到葡萄酒中，使瓶中酒口感更圓潤順口，發展成更獨特香氣。

不妨與朋友一起品飲，看看Magnum大瓶裝和標準瓶是否真的有傳說中的升級享受吧！
