A Standard bottle holds 750ml and remains the most popular size, while a Magnum is a 1.5 litre bottle, or the size of two standard bottles. A Jeroboam, or a Double Magnum, holds 3 litres of wine (four bottles), where a Bordeaux Jeroboam holds 5 litres.
Atleast 3 liters which is 6 bottles. A gallon is near 4 liters.

How Much Is a Handle and a Fifth? A handle is 1.75 liters, 1,750 milliliters or 59.2 ounces. A fifth, however, is a measurement of alcohol at 750 milliliters, or 25.4 ounces, though it stopped being the standard liquor size bottle in the United States in 1980.
One full 750 ml bottle and an additional third of a bottle make 1 liter of liquid. One liter equals 1,000 ml, or milliliters. A 750 ml bottle is equivalent to three-quarters of a liter, or 0.75 liters.
It takes approximately two and a half 750 milliliter bottles to make a half gallon. To get the number of bottles needed to make half a gallon, the gallon has to be converted to milliliters, divided by 2 to get half of it and then divided by the number 750. One gallon translates to 3,785.41178 milliliters.
