I didn't know they did this and find how certain things are made very interesting. Shame the wooden barrels are disappearing though.

Probably the wooden barrels will make a comeback at some point, people are getting tired of plastics everywhere.
I hope so as plastic just doesn't have the same impact plus I bet it does change the taste with no wood involved. Imagine making wine in plastic barrels ignoring the role the oak barrel plays in the overall taste.
I think the use of oak in the making/storing of wine has dropped a lot as well, now the standard is stainless steel, but for whiskeys...that's not an option.
