Shows how wealthy they are.
It's part of the guy's work (Chef).
It's a subtle sign that they are trying to drown their grief and stress, given the trauma they suffered of losing the baby.

The wine is there to give the impression that main actors are very cultural, modern, articulate and educated.

All that wine also goes well with the show’s aesthetic, don’t you think? ;) Anyway, first response from the old timey righty had it right (moreso than the second response anyway, smh).

Such a good show.
