Here’s a synopsis: Uncorked delves into the life of a talented but self-destructive winemaker who returns to Napa for her second chance at love, legacy and that elusive 100 point wine. (Not that she’s constantly refreshing winespectator.com or anything.) This is a woman whose greatest passion is also her fatal flaw — a failing that, usually begins before lunch on Tuesday.
“Seeing audiences around the world fall in love with Emily in Paris has been a dream,” Darren shared in a statement. “As Emily’s story continues to inspire and unfold, I’m excited to continue my relationship with Netflix and explore a new world with Uncorked. We’re diving straight into the legacy and romance of Napa Valley, where every great vintage has a unique story to tell.”
“Darren and I wanted to create a series that explores what happens when your greatest passion is also your Achilles’ heel,” David added. “With Napa’s beauty and bounty as our setting, we hope the audience never wants to leave. We want to thank Netflix and Universal Television for indulging our copious amounts of day drinking in the name of meticulous research.”
In addition to Darren‘s Emily In Paris and Uncoupled (which starred Neil Patrick Harris) streaming on Netflix, his other hit shows, Sex and the City and Younger, are also available to watch on the platform!
In fact, Emily In Paris was recently renewed for a sixth season.
