Family-Owned Calistoga Vineyard and Winery Continues 40-Year Anniversary Celebration Year with Expansion Announcement
Napa Valley, CA – (Tuesday, April 28, 2020) – Kenefick Ranch today announced it has hired Osborn Siegert Architecture LLP (os-arch) to design a brand-new tasting room.

“We’ve found the perfect partner in os-arch, and look forward to working with them on the highly anticipated expansion of our vineyard and winery, which is something we’ve dreamt about for many years,” said Chris Kenefick, vice president of sales for Kenefick Ranch. “From their deep, specialized experience in winery design to their commitment to sustainability, os-arch’s approach truly aligns with our vision for the new tasting room.

About Kenefick Ranch
Kenefick Ranch is a family-owned vineyard located in Calistoga, offering public tastings at Fairwinds Estate Winery on the Silverado Trail. The vineyard was founded when Dr. Tom Kenefick, a practicing neurosurgeon in San Francisco, first visited – and fell in love with – the Napa Valley. In 1980, he purchased a 250-acre ranch located in the region’s northernmost American Viticultural Area (AVA) – Calistoga, where half the land is planted with grapevines. In 2002, Dr. Kenefick retired from neurosurgery and Kenefick Ranch began producing and selling its own portfolio of award-winning wines. Today, Kenefick Ranch sells its own label, and 90 percent of its grapes to such prestigious labels as Caymus Vineyards, Cade Estate Winery, Eisele Vineyard, and Nickel + Nickel, and winemakers Thomas Rivers Brown and Heidi Barrett. Kenefick Ranch boasts a dynamic wine club, giving oenophiles and novices alike access to an array of benefits including discounts, first notifications of limited releases, invitations to private events, complimentary tastings, vineyard tours, and incentive savings on shipments and anniversary gifts.
