Increased aging potential

Compared to a typical 750ml wine bottle, a large format bottle has less oxygen trapped inside relative to the volume of wine. This is the ratio of air to liquid. Reduced oxygen by volume allows the wine to oxidize more slowly and lengthens the aging process. And strengthening the overall stability of the wine positively affects aroma and flavor development as the wine ages. Given proper cellaring conditions, a large format bottle can yield wine that ages longer and tends to be more robust.
