About this listen

Welcome to Barrels & Roots, a journey through the world of wine and food, where every vineyard, kitchen, and cellar holds a story worth telling. Hosted by Sean Trace, this show explores the passion, tradition, and creativity that turn simple ingredients into art and shared moments into legacy.

From the heart of Napa Valley to the tables and tasting rooms of the world, Sean sits down with winemakers, chefs, and artisans who live by their craft. Each conversation dives into the culture, the community, and the human stories that give flavor to what we create and share.

Whether you are a sommelier, a chef, a storyteller, or someone who simply loves the ritual of a good meal and a better conversation, Barrels & Roots invites you to slow down, listen closely, and taste the stories that connect us all.

    Oct 22 2025

    From grape to bottle with Gloria Ferrer winemaker Kyle Altomare. We go deep on flavor, patience, and why sparkling wine is the ultimate craft. Kyle shares how a former teacher became a Sonoma winemaker, the art of listening to what the vineyard wants, and how tradition and innovation meet in the cellar. We talk analog joy in a digital world, PYPD put your phone down, the slow feedback loop of vintage to vintage, and building wines that create memories across generations.

    If you love Napa Sonoma stories, food and wine pairings, and the creative process, this episode is a vibe.
