Luc Belaire launches ZEUS, the largest champagne bottle in the world*.

With 45 liters ZEUS is currently the largest available champagne bottle in the world

28-Jun-2023 - USA

Luc Belaire has created the largest sparkling wine bottle in the world* and christened it "ZEUS", after the head of the Greek gods. At 45 liters (the equivalent of 60 standard bottles of Belaire), Belaire ZEUS is the largest bottle of sparkling wine currently available. Its colossal stature is more than one meter (3.5 feet) tall and weighs 72.5 kg (160 pounds) when full, requiring three people to carry and pour.

Belaire ZEUS is a masterpiece of metalworking and creativity. The bottle took seven years to make, crafted by aerospace engineers in an unprecedented procedure: a process of centrifugal casting, machining, internal coating, powder coating and pressure testing. Their steel shape insulates and protects the wine from extreme temperatures, making Belaire ZEUS virtually unbreakable!

The production of Belaire ZEUS is extremely limited: only two bottles were made. One is filled with Belaire's signature Rare Rosé, a unique French sparkling wine that became the #1 rosé wine** in America. The second contains Luc Belaire Luxe, our demi sec success wine. Both are vinified at our estate in the heart of Burgundy. Each bottle of Belaire ZEUS contains an incredible three billion bubbles!***

To date, Belaire's legendary bottles have been produced up to the impressive 15-liter size known as Nebuchadnezzar. The brand's large format bottles have become the first choice of celebrities, influencers, artists and athletes around the world to celebrate professional milestones, album releases and championship victories.

With his towering appearance, ZEUS is an exceptional photo subject for fans - and that's why both bottles will be touring the world! The tour will begin in the U.S., where celebrities, artists and select fans will be invited to lift Belaire ZEUS with a custom-built pulley. Anyone strong enough to lift the giant bottle will receive a prize! You can expect Belaire ZEUS to appear at events, sporting events and in music videos. The first stop on the tour is Luc Belaire's office in Manhattan, New York, where friends and fans will have the opportunity to have their picture taken next to this giant champagne bottle.
