Default French mortgage tradition

There is (supposedly) a French tradition that a couple moving into a new
house is given a bottle of red wine and a bottle of white wine. One of
them (specified but I forgot) is supposed to be opened the day they move
in, and the other (some specified time) later.

Ever heard of anything like this? What is the actual tradition and how
did it originate?
