Glasses per bottle

Depends entirely on the pour. This shows the answer for every standard pour size and bottle format.

UK pubs and restaurants must offer 125 ml

Result

4 full glasses

Total volume: 750 ml (0.75 litres)Wine left over: 50 ml
How this was worked out

Formula

servings = (bottle volume × number of bottles) ÷ pour size

Where

  • V = 750 mlBottle volume. The stated capacity of one bottle.
  • n = 1Number of bottles. How many bottles of this size you have.
  • p = 175 mlPour size. How much wine goes into each glass.

Steps

  1. Total volume: 750 ml × 1 = 750 ml = 750 ml
  2. Divide by pour size: 750 ml ÷ 175 ml = 4.29 = 4.29 servings
  3. Round down to whole glasses: ⌊4.29⌋ = 4 = 4 servingsRounded down because a partial glass is not a serving.

What this assumes

  • Pours are exact. In practice free-poured glasses vary by 10–20%.
  • No allowance is made for wine left in the bottle or lost to sediment.

Where it stops being reliable

  • A 175 ml pour is the standard UK measure, but "a glass of wine" means different things in different places and in different homes.
