Why do they need vineyards? Can't they make any wine using replicators?
Why do people cook themselves? Can't they just microwave something?
Probably because some people enjoy the little imperfections that but being replicated brings
Honestly I think it's a bit of cope from the writers not wanting to deal with the ultimate consequences of the world building decisions (which is fine). I'm sure people want to make stuff in real ways but industrial size vineyards? Eh, why not replace it with a lush biologically diverse forest with some wine bushes spread about and little drones harvesting in a smart way.
