![]() | New England Wine Co. bottles.
Here are two appropriately designed "barrel cask" wine bottles with quite nice iridescence. Greg Dilian found the American Blackberry Wine bottle back in the '90s. After going through Hartung's books, page by page, he finally found it listed as "Peach Wine Bottle" in Book Six. He subsequently found the distinctive bottle, sans label, identified as "Boston Wine Bottle" in Sherman Hand's Book Three. Thus far, Peach and Blackberry are the only flavors that have surfaced.
