Kaena Wine Company
Welcome to Kaena Wines
A Santa Barbara County Rhône & Bordeaux Winery
Experience A Piece of Hawaii in Santa Barbara County With Wine Tastings in Solvang, CA.
For over 25 years Kaena has been utilizing native Hawaiian intuition to craft unique balanced wines of style, elegance, and power. This is achieved by selecting only the finest vineyards and working closely with growers to ensure the highest quality fruit possible.
The wines are made utilizing the best techniques the old and new world has to offer. Fermentations occur naturally with native yeasts, and caps are mixed by hand to ensure gentle extraction, creating long-lived wines with a deep sense of varietal character and terroir.
Kaena is recognized as one of North America’s best Bordeaux and Rhone-varietal wineries. Founder and winemaker Mikael Sigouin an Oahu native is hailed by his peers as the “The King of Grenache”. You can enjoy our wines during a memorable wine tasting in Solvang at Kaena at The Ranch.
