Soil, Story, Soul | Josh Trowbridge | Barrels and Roots

from Barrels & Roots · host Sean Trace

In this episode, I sat down with Josh Trowbridge, the general manager of Benovia Winery, for a conversation about wine, storytelling, and what gives something lasting value. From discovering wine in college to building a career across sales, harvest, cooperage, and executive leadership, Josh shared a journey that eventually brought him back to the heart of wine country. We talked about Russian River Valley terroir, the importance of expressing place, and why the real power of wine is not just what is in the bottle but the conversations and memories it creates around the table. This episode also touches on the tension between modern convenience and timeless craft, and why some things still matter more because they take more care. What is one product, place, or experience that feels more meaningful to you because of the story behind it?
