And a new marketing term is invented...
This wine is "Space Aged!"

There’s a theory that storage in a basement near the ammo locker enhances the taste and development of rare Bordeaux. If they’d just send me a case I’d be happy to check it out for them.

12 bottles X 3 lbs each X $10k (cost per lb to get in orbit) = $360,000.
not including how much the wine itself costs.

That was my first thought as well!
I suppose it’s nice to know how red wine ages in space. But given that the U.S. is a debtor nation, I would question why any American tax dollars are being spent on such studies.
Oh, wait. The article says that this study will “help prepare the world for the effects that climate change will have on agriculture...”. So it’s money well-spent after all.
(Or should I say money well-borrowed?)

“Gaume and his colleagues hope that studying wine and other foods in space could not only be useful for future crewed space missions, but it could also help prepare the world for the effects that climate change will have on agriculture, such as grapes.”
There you see the assigned purpose the article.

You’ve left some things out of your calculation.
We shouldn’t be paying for any of this.
This is unimportant and abuse of the Space Station.

Yes. And even if we’re were not a debtor nation there is no reason to waste resources on this.
