What Is Blackthorn?
Blackthorn is a hidden wine society with the goal to turn the normal ways we interact with wine on its head. It's where wine and education meet myth, mystery and curiosity.
Whether you’re just starting out or have been swirling and sipping for years, you belong here. No tests. No snobs. Just storytelling, secret wine drops, and maybe... a few hauntings.
Blackthorn is for you if:
You’ve ever felt out of place at a wine tasting
You’re sick of wine being explained like an exam
You’re curious, playful, and just witchy enough
You’ve been craving a place where wine is about connection, not competition
The First Password Awaits...
Tired of snobby wine lists, sterile tasting rooms, and the gatekeeping that keeps wine knowledge locked away behind velvet ropes?
You're not alone. That’s exactly why Blackthorn was founded: to reclaim wine from the pretentious and return it to the curious, the rule-breakers, and the romantics.
