HI y'all. I have reached a brief moment of intellectual challenge. When someone says "adopt" a wine, does it mean that someone else owns the bottle but just that the person adopting the bottle is paying the owner of that bottle for it to be his/her wine contribution for that evening?

Don't worry, I had to ask the same thing before the Old & Odd last week. :oops:

Yes, you are exactly correct.
