Commentary for Avodah Zarah 120:5
<big><strong>גמ׳</strong></big> אמר שמואל והוא שיש לו מלוה על אותו יין
GEMARA. Shmuel said: [The first clause of the mishnah applies only] when he has a lien on that wine [which is in the vat].
Daf Shevui to Avodah Zarah
If a non-Jew throws an empty cask into a vat of wine the wine in the vat is not forbidden at all. Since in this case the non-Jew certainly did not make a libation with the wine, it is permitted and a Jew may even drink the wine.
