Synopsis reads: “It’s been a tumultuous six months since we last saw our Oakley family, and much is afoot. Desperate to regain their former standing as the ‘sole’ mutual heirs of Oakley, Daisy and Louis will need to work together to try and oust William in any way they can.”

Erin White is directing Episodes 1-3, with Laurence Wilson on Episodes 4-6. Kelly Lefever, Erin White, Nick Ward, Kathryn Burnett, Harry McNaughton, and Steph Matuku are the writers

Gibney, Richard Fletcher for Libertine Pictures and Brendan Dahill for Perpetual Entertainment (formerly known as EQ Media Group) are the executive producers. Acorn Media Enterprises, Acorn TV’s London-based development division, co-produces, along with New Zealand pubcaster TVNZ.

As we first revealed back in 2020, Under the Vines follows Edwards and Gibney as two unlikely city slickers who inherit a failing vineyard in rural New Zealand. AMC Networks-owned streamer Acorn first ordered it alongside TVNZ.

Acorn TV operates in North America and focuses on premium British and international TV. Its original shows include New Zealand detective series My Life Is Murder, starring Lucy Lawless, British crime drama Whitstable Pearl, the Emmy-nominated Queens of Mystery and detective drama Dalgliesh.
