The comedy will delve 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. This is a woman whose greatest passion is also her fatal flaw - a failing that, usually begins before lunch on Tuesday.
Star and Schulner will serve as co-showrunners on the first season. They will executive produce with Tony Hernandez and Lilly Burns. Universal Television and Counterpart Studios will produce.
"Seeing audiences around the world fall in love with Emily in Paris has been a dream," said Star. "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," added Schulner. "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."
"Darren Star's storytelling has found an incredible home on Netflix, with global hits like Emily in Paris and Sex and the City becoming true cultural touchstones for our members," shared Tracey Pakosta, Vice President of Comedy Series, United States, Netflix. "We are thrilled that Darren and David have partnered on this new series which tells the story of romance and redemption set in the beautiful Napa Valley that we believe will connect with audiences around the world."
