Owen's never had wine before. He's never really had the chance: not only could he dream of affording even the cheap swill the tavern's serve, but getting someone to take his coin would be a truly herculean labour. So he resigned himself to the occasional ale, the odd keg fallen off a wagon by the woods his shack resides in once in a blue moon, and water, plenty of water, comfortable in never having a glass of wine. It's not even something he's been keen to try - it's for normal people to drink. Not him.

He knows by now Louis has no ulterior motives, he just appreciates his company and companionship.
