I always thought the largest was the Nebuchadnezzar at 15 liters but I learned at the above site that there are several larger. The largest mentioned there is the Midas at 30 liters, the equivalent of 40 standard bottles. (The stuff one learns at a tools forum !)

The bottles above a double magnum (3 liters) are named for biblical kings - no one seems to know why.
