Again here, I copped out a bit and used "bot" in inverted commas. My deadline was looming -- no choice.

full name "Bot de Fougerolles", bouteille ventrue du XVIII° siècle, don't think it should be translated, amators probably what it is....

Earthenware bottle?

Proposed translations

wide-based bottle

Or just say "traditional bottle" and rely on the picture, assuming there is one!

Bot (traditional bottle)

BOT : Bouteille traditionnelle de Fougerolles, soufflée, ventrue et
à très long col. Elle était probablement fabriquée dans la forêt de
Damey. On y stockait les eaux-de-vie.
