Premiering in April 2023, the show follows Camille Léger (Fleur Geffrier), a French woman grappling with her estranged father’s death, who must compete against his protégé, Issei Tomine (Tomohisa Yamashita), in a high-stakes oenological contest to inherit a $148 million wine collection. What begins as a cerebral battle of palates evolves into a poignant exploration of family secrets, cultural clashes, and personal redemption—served with lush visuals and a tri-lingual script in French, Japanese, and English that feels effortlessly global. Critics have raised their glasses high, bestowing “Drops of God” with a flawless 100% score on Rotten Tomatoes from 27 reviews, earning it a Certified Fresh seal. The consensus? “A saga of cutthroat competition with notes of cool intelligence,” it’s “sleek entertainment sure to stimulate refined palates.” Vulture hailed it as an “intoxicating ride,” praising how it overcomes soapy clichés to deliver “a series unlike anything else on TV,” blending manga whimsy with French-Japanese cinematic finesse. NPR called it a “pleasurable” high-gloss drama, luxuriously bottled with “connoisseur vintages” and “voluminous snobberies” that mask deeper undercurrents of business intrigue and emotional depth. Eater raved about its deft weaving of “family dysfunction and high stakes into the world of wine tasting,” making it accessible even for non-oenophiles. What to Watch went further, dubbing it “simply one of the best shows I’ve ever seen,” bolder and more layered than The Queen’s Gambit, with a “masterpiece” grip that demands wider attention. Audiences echo this fervor, with a 93% Rotten Tomatoes score and effusive user reviews on IMDb and Reddit. “Thoroughly enjoyed every minute… ten times better than a lot of the other stuff on there,” gushed one Reddit wine enthusiast, crediting its “great actors” and “unusual story.” Another called it “gentle TV” that’s “still great” even without wine knowledge, urging viewers to savor it fully—no multitasking allowed. On X, fans proclaim it a “great story, shot in 3 languages, & executed at a high level,” while others lament its under-the-radar status: “Currently watching and loving it! Apple TV has the best series right now.” TheNerdsOfColor lauded its “beautifully told story about finding family,” a “love letter to oenophiles.” Pajiba deemed it a “hidden gem” with “full-bodied” narrative flair. This acclaim peaked with a 2024 International Emmy for Best Drama Series, underscoring its “taut, elegant, flat-out fun” appeal. As one X user noted, it’s “amazing TV” among Apple TV+’s gems like Severance and Slow Horses. Fleur Geffrier and Tomohisa Yamashita return in season two of the Emmy Award-winning multilingual drama, “Drops of God,” premiering January 21, 2026 on Apple TV+. The buzz intensifies with Season 2’s announcement. Premiering January 21, 2026, on Apple TV+, the eight-episode arc thrusts Camille and Issei into unraveling “the world’s greatest wine” — a mystery that eluded their father, Alexandre. Spanning continents and centuries, it unearths “forgotten histories, hidden rivalries, and secrets buried for generations,” testing their sibling bond to the brink. Geffrier and Yamashita return, promising more “shockingly mesmerizing” thrills. As 9to5Mac puts it, this “one of its best-reviewed shows” deserves the spotlight it once hid in. Drops of God isn’t just a series — it’s a vintage revelation, proving Apple TV+ excels at sophisticated, soul-stirring tales. With Season 2 on the horizon, it’s time to raise a glass: This drop is divine.
