Burgundy Bottles

[CPThomson]

Hey gang, does anyone have any insight on bottling with burgundy style wine bottles? Design-wise, sort of halfway between normal wine bottles and champagne bottles. Looking to bottle with a bit of style, here. Thanks.

Is this for beer or wine?

This is for an APA, about 5.7 right now.

Clear or green bottles will give you skunked beer, where the light reacts badly with the hops, so brewers usually use brown bottles. Also if you don’t pour the lot in one go, you will end up drinking the yeast. It’s a lot more faff corking bottles than crown caps or swing tops too.
No harm in using a couple out a of a batch though if it’s just for show. Recommend you keep them in a dark cupboard if you do.

I can't quite make out the opening, but it looks like it might take a 29 mm crown cap. Was this a sparkling burgundy?
If so you're good to cap or cork. If not then the bottle wasn't designed to take an internal pressure. That's not to say it won't, but be careful. Post a close-up of the top, if you can.
