Land of Women is a Dramedy TV Series with the first two episodes streaming on June 26, 2024 on Apple TV+, filmed mostly in Spain, a Spanish and an English Language version was produced. Land of Women is based on the 2014 novel of the same name, "La Tierra de las Mujeres" (Land of Women) by Sandra Barneda. 

Gala, a New York empty nester whose life is turned upside down when her husband implicates the family in financial improprieties, and she is forced to flee the city alongside her aging mother and teenage daughter. To escape the dangerous criminals to whom Gala's now vanished husband is indebted, the three women hide in the same charming wine town "La Muga" in Northern Spain that Gala's mother, Julia, fled 50 years ago, vowing never to return. The women seek to start anew and hope their identities will remain unknown, but gossip in the small town quickly spreads, unraveling their deepest family secrets and truths. 

Eva Longoria as Gala

Victoria Bazua as Kate, Gala's teenage daughter, who was enjoying her freedom at boarding school far from her overbearing mom. That is until she is bamboozled into joining a “girls’ trip” only to discover her family is now on the run. Sardonic and bold, she has inherited her grandmother’s rather dark sense of humor. Though sometimes this is just a facade to hide her insecurities. 

Carmen Maura as Julia, Gala's aging mother, who grew up in the town they have fled to. 

Gloria Muñoz as Mariona, Julia's estranged sister. Though childhood best friends, Mariona never understood why Julia left town and never forgave her for not even writing a word. Mariona is full of hurt and resentment until Julia walks back into her life like a wake-up call. 

Santiago Cabrera as Amat, who has lived in La Muga for only a couple of years. While he likes to keep to himself, he has a heart of gold and has quickly earned the affection of the townsfolk... and perhaps even Gala’s. He spends most of his time among the vines and in the little winery that he shares with the village co-op. 

Amaury Nolasco as Kevin, the trainee hitman after Gala, and her family. Excessively worried about his physique and his number of followers on social media, he holds just enough malice to do the job.

Jim Kitson as Hank

Vianessa Castaños as Edna

Colin Morgan as Prestamista, a loan shark

Lolo Herrero as Berlanga

Gary Anthony Stennette as TSA Officer

So is there a lot to do with wine?

It would be the second Apple TV + series involving wine if that's the case.

But will it be as good as Drops of God?
