Drinking wine in the park while children play?

I took my little one to the park yesterday afternoon and there was a mum and daughter sitting on a blanket with a picnic and a bottle of wine with 2 plastic glasses while the little ones were playing.
They were sitting chatting and watching the kids who were around primarily school age playing together.

I didn’t think a lot at the time but maybe thought it was a bit funny, would you think it was ok to crack open a bottle of wine in the play park?

Did the wine definitely contain alcohol?
Did they share the whole bottle?

To clarify, the mum of the children was with drinking wine with her own mother, not the mum and child drinking.
