Wines
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 Americas best Rhone-varietal wineries. Founder and winemaker Mikael Sigouin an Oahu native is hailed by his peers as the "The King of Grenache".
