How Many Glasses of Champagne in a Bottle?

by Hunter Robillard

Party planning or just taking stock of inventory for your wine collection? You need to know how many glasses your Champagne bottle holds.

No one wants to run out of sparklers halfway through a toast, right? In this article, you’ll find all about how much Champagne each bottle contains and how many bottles you’ll need, depending on your party size.

How Many Glasses of Champagne in a Bottle?

A standard bottle of Champagne measures 750 ml bottle, which equals 25.36 ounces, and fills six glasses (standard wine glass.) You can get more glasses per bottle of sparkling wine because of the Champagne bubbles and the shape of the Champagne flute.

While a Champagne flute usually contains 6 ounces, a typical serving for toast is just over 4 ounces.

If you only partially fill glasses for a toast, your Champagne bottle will last longer through the party. A typical bottle of Champagne provides 6.25 servings for toast.

Now, if you want to know how much Champagne each bottle size holds, refer to this table:

This should help you plan your dinner party well in advance.

But if you need to know exactly how many bottles you need, check this out.

How Many Bottles of Champagne Do You Need?

Some guests will have a glass or two of alcohol, and some won't have any at all. So it's safe to estimate that, on average, the guests will drink a Champagne glass each (change this number if you know you have an unusual number of Champagne lovers in your club!)

If you serve it as toast, one tulip glass or Champagne glass per person is enough. Because for a Champagne toast, you only need to pour about a third of the wine glass. Therefore plan a single bottle of bubbly per ten guests.

If you serve a glass of Champagne cocktail before a meal, plan for 1.5 glasses per person. You can make 6-8 mimosas from each 750ml bottle, so for a party of 20 (with each guest having 2-3 drinks), we recommend buying about 6-8 bottles of non-vintage or vintage Champagne.

Here’s another quick way to plan your celebrations. Simply divide the number of guests by five. So for 150 guests, you'll need 30 bottles of Champagne for at least one Champagne glass per person.

Based on this rough estimation, this table can help you plan how many bottles to buy:

Remember, one case of Champagne contains six bottles. So you plan your bulk orders to get a discount too!

And never mind some extra Champagne after your dinner party. Just store it safely for your next bash, turn it into after-party cocktails, or build a Champagne tower with your guests!

Raise a Toast with Champagne!

Now that you’re armed with the number of servings and how many bottles of Champagne you’d need, you’re all set to host your next big bash.

Now, if you want to buy the finest vintage or non vintage Champagne like a Dom Perignon from Moet & Chandon, you should consider investing in authentic bottles through a wine investment company like Vinovest.
