Netflix has dropped the first trailer for Uncorked. The film stars Mamoudou Athie, Courtney B. Vance, Niecy Nash, Bernard David Jones, Matt McGorry, Sasha Compere, Gil Ozeri, Kelly Jenrette and Meera Rohit Kumbhani. It is written and directed by Insecure showrunner Prentice Penny.

It was originally set to premiere at the 2020 SXSW Film Festival before the fest got canceled. The film is set to bow on Netflix on March 27.

The official description: Fueled by his love for wine, Elijah enrolls in a course to become a master sommelier, an elite designation given only to a handful who are able to pass its notoriously difficult exam. It’s a dream that upends the expectations of his father, Louis (Courtney B. Vance), who insists Elijah take over the popular Memphis barbeque joint that’s been passed down from father to son since its inception. Elijah struggles with the demands of school and a new relationship, while Louis wrestles with the feelings of his son rejecting the family business until a tragedy forces both of them to slow things down.
