Spartan-burg Steel Products (of Spartanburg, South Carolina) also made these type kegs. The name Cornelius comes from the best-known manufacturer of these kegs, the Cornelius Company (of Anoka, Minnesota). The Cornelius isn’t a bottle, however, it’s a keg - specifically, a 5-gallon (19 L) stainless steel keg originally employed in the soft drink industry. There is also a size between Melchior (18 L) and Sovereign (25.5 L) that you may never have heard of - the Cornelius (18.9 L). However, less common, larger bottle sizes include Jeroboams (which hold 4 standard bottles of wine), Methuselahs (8 bottles), Balthazars (16 bottles) Nebuchadnezzars (20 bottles), Melchiors (24 bottles) and Sovereigns (34 bottles). Sparkling wine usually comes packaged in either standard-sized wine bottles (750 mL), half-bottle-sized splits or Magnums, which hold the equivalent of two standard wine bottles.
