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.

In this episode we are talking about Barbera. This wine is both rich in texture and light bodied making it ideal for food pairing and a daily glass of wines. Allie brings us a excellent and affordable example of the wine.
Julie breaks down the regions and history of the variety, and how it has changed over the years.
Then Allie takes us back to 1985 and the methanol scandal of Barbera from Piedmont. She breaks down the where, when, and how something liket this could ever happen.
