Wine matured in space put up for sale
A bottle of French wine that orbited the Earth for more than a year has been put up for sale.
The bottle of Pétrus 2000 - made from Merlot grapes in the Bordeaux region - spent 14 months in orbit as part of a privately-funded research study on food and agriculture.
On Tuesday Christie's announced the wine is now available through its private sales.
The auction house estimates a sale price of $1m (£720,000).
Tim Triptree, a Master of Wine who works at Christie's, told the BBC a regular bottle of Pétrus 2000 will also be sold alongside the space-aged bottle, "so the lucky buyer will be able to compare the two".
