It’s when restaurants or wine tastings let you bring your own wine but open it for you and charge for that

Its something restaurants charge when you bring your own booze. Often times when something like a wedding rents out a whole restaurant and wants to bring their own stuff, the restaurant charges a corkage fee.
Most charge an exorbitant fee to incentivize getting the booze from them and it leads to situations, where a party pays 30€ to serve a 8€ bottle of rum.
