Usually this is the round bottom bottle that held wine....

I've never seen one of these found with a wine label, but I guess it's possible...

chianti came in round bottom bottles wrapped with a basket called a fiasco. I think that the green bottle shown below is exactly that.

that is the only round bottom bottle I know of from the last hundred
years or so.

Re: RE: Round bottom Wine?

Hey, I have been collecting for 76+ years and I have learned two new things in the last two days. DA!! I never knew they made turn mold bottles by turning the blown bottle while it was still in the mold - to the point of twisting lines in the top of the neck before the bottle had the finish applied. DA!! This mold even had a bottom plate in it at the same time. Any help on this one appreciated. RED Matthews
