THE TEAM BEHIND ENIW WYNE EVENTS
An operating team shaped by wine country, hospitality mastery, and long-term vision.
Chuy Vidales
Owner | CEO
Chuy Vidales didn’t set out to build a hospitality company — he set out to protect one. Grounded in a firsthand understanding of wine country families fighting to hold onto their land, he built Eniw Wyne Events LLC around a simple conviction: the land was never the problem — the revenue model was.
Today, the agency serves as Authorized Agent to estate partners representing over 2,500 acres across Santa Barbara County, transforming working agricultural land into diversified, income-generating properties through farm stays, curated guest experiences, and estate events.
With over two decades in luxury hospitality — and a career spanning from General Manager of Restaurants to Director of Food & Beverage at destinations including Montage International, Turtle Bay Resort, and Balboa Bay Club — Chuy brings operational precision to every experience. Underneath it all is a model designed to create recurring, documented income for estates, reshaping how they are sustained, valued, and grown.
Jenna Vidales
COO
Jenna Vidales brings something to Eniw Wyne that can’t be taught — she grew up in it. Raised in the vineyards of Santa Barbara County as the daughter of winemaker Dan Kessler, she developed an instinctive understanding of what authentic wine country experiences should feel like.
That foundation, paired with over a decade in talent acquisition, business development, and program management, gives her a rare perspective — she understands both the land and the people drawn to it.
As Director of Sales & Business Systems, Jenna leads the relationships that connect estate partners, guests, and industry networks into a cohesive, lasting platform.
Jeremy Vidales leads the strategic development behind Eniw Wyne’s next phase of growth. With a background in business marketing and an MBA from the University of Oklahoma, he brings both analytical precision and a disciplined, competitive mindset to the agency’s expansion.
As Head of Strategic Development, Jeremy focuses on scaling the portfolio, deepening presence across California’s wine regions, and building the operational infrastructure that supports long-term growth. His work centers on identifying new estate partnerships, developing revenue strategies, and positioning Eniw Wyne as a scalable, statewide platform.
