Why do some wine and champagne bottles have a dimple at the bottom, known as a punt?
The punt at the bottom of wine and champagne bottles serves several purposes. It strengthens the bottle, helping it withstand the pressure of carbonated beverages like champagne. It also makes the bottle easier to hold and pour, especially for large or heavy bottles. Additionally, it helps collect sediment that can accumulate in wine, preventing it from being poured into your glass.
