Renegade - A Blackthorn Podcast
Renegade is a wine podcast for rebels, witches and the wisely intoxicated. This is a week audio ritual from the founders of Blackthorn, a secret society for wine lovers, witches, and story-seekers. We blend rebellious wine education with mythology, history, and the kind of truths you only tell over a second glass.
Hosted by Allie and Julie, wine educators and storytelling sorceresses, this isn’t your average wine podcast. Expect interviews with rule-breaking winemakers, irreverent dives into wine culture, and the occasional tale from the cellar shadows.

Episode 5: Quiet Rebellion Of Chilled Red Wine: Sicilian Frappato
When the world is heating up, there is no reason to leave red wine out of the equation. Renegade provides you with a premium example of an ancient grape steeped in Italian culture and quiet rebellion.
One woman in particular returned to her home in Sicily and reinvigorated not only Frappato but other noteworthy varieties. Where others saw Frappato as a blending grape, she was one of the first people to recognize it can stand on its own and has gained a slight cult following.
Beat the heat with us with a chilled red or your favorite beverage to quench your thirst. Join us to celebrate how wine belongs in all seasons.
