Mission Hill Estate Winery

Nestled high above Okanagan Lake, Mission Hill Family Estate Winery represents a combination of sophistication and perfection at its best in West Kelowna, British Columbia. Founded by the von Mandl family in 1981, over time, Mission Hill developed from a small winery to one of the most renowned wine destinations of the world. Its founder, Anthony von Mandl, envisioned a place of perfect harmony among art and architecture combined with winemaking-precisely what Mission Hill has become. From an emblematic bell tower to the incredible theater in the open air, this winery is, in fact, not merely a haven for wine connoisseurs but essentially a cultural landmark in Okanagan Valley.

From its flagship Legacy Series, including award-winning Bordeaux-style reds like Oculus, to crisp, aromatic whites showcasing the distinct terroir of the Okanagan, Mission Hill’s wine portfolio speaks volumes about the commitment to craftsmanship and quality. It offers guided tastings and tours, which include a visit to their impressive underground barrel cellars for an insider’s view of this artistry. The winery is set in an impressive setting, bound to increase the level of the wine tasting: panoramic views over the lake and immaculately landsced gardens provide a serene backdrop for sipping world-class wines.

But what really makes Mission Hill stand apart, though, is the commitment to creating unforgettable moments: from an evening summer concert in the open-air amphitheater, dining at the Terrace Restaurant with its farm-to-table menu, or simply taking in the various art installations on the estate-there’s magic around every corner. Mission Hill is so much more than a winery; it’s a celebration of beauty, history, and possibility that is the Okanagan Valley. A visit here is not only a wine tasting but a journey through worlds where tradition and innovation mix, and every little detail contributes to flights of imagination.
