Why are most wine bottles made of glass?
When red wine was first born, ceramic jars were used. At that time, neither glass nor iron making technology was developed, let alone plastic. It was not until the advent of coal-fired furnaces that people could make thicker glass, and with the advent of oak stoppers, glass bottles successfully replaced the previous ceramic jars.
Glass bottles have not been replaced by tin cans or plastic bottles: one is due to historical and traditional factors; the second is that glass bottles are extremely stable and will not affect the quality of red wine; the third is that glass bottles and corks can be perfectly integrated into Red wine offers the glamour of ageing in the bottle.
Features of wine bottles
Wine bottle green or brown
The color of the early wine bottle was already green. Due to the limited craftsmanship at that time, the wine bottle produced contained many impurities, so it appeared green. To date, most red wine bottles are still colored dark green or brown, as it has been found to help the wine to age well without being affected by light. White wine and rosé wine are generally packaged in transparent red wine bottles, hoping to show the bright colors of red wine to consumers, while also giving people a fresh feeling.
