Mission Hill : Winery of the Year

Mission Hill Family Estate in BC's Okanagan Valley has been designated the 2007 Canadian Winery of the Year by Wine Access magazine.

As one of Canada's most respected wine and food publications, it's a prestigious honor. And for the second time in the competition's seven-year history, Mission Hill has come out on top.

With its 20 estates, Mission Hill Family Estate is the major private vineyard owner in the Okanagan Valley. The wines include the Bordeaux-inspired blend Oculus and the Select Lot Collection range.

Architectural Record named it as one of the world's four outstanding new wineries in the world -- and the only one in North America.

West Jet and Air Canada fly regularly to Kelowna from major western destinations and from Seattle you can fly non-stop on Horizon.
