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.

Nightcap 7: Blackthorn by The Glass - Bourgueil Rosé: Cabernet Franc’s Wild, Rare Side
On this week's Nightcap, Blackthorn by the Glass pours something rare and radiant — the 2023 Bourgueil Rosé from Domaine Audebert et Fils in France’s Loire Valley. Crafted from 100% Cabernet Franc (the grape locals call “Breton”), this saignée-style rosé is bright with strawberry, blood orange, and a whisper of spice. We’ll wander through Bourgueil’s thousand-year wine history, explore why Cabernet Franc thrives here, and share why this fuller-bodied rosé isn’t just for sunny afternoons — it’s made for charcuterie boards, roast chicken, and smoky summer BBQs.
