About Mission Hill Family Estate Winery
Our Mission Hill Family Estate Winery sits high above stunning Lake Okanagan in the heart of the Okanagan Valley, British Columbia. Known for stunning setting, breathtaking architecture, 'Cuisine de Terroir'-based Terrace Restaurant and exquisite wines, Mission Hill is committed to delivering a world class experience to our guests.
Our Family owned winery pioneered making world-caliber wines in this pristine Valley, known for exquisite tree fruit, and nothing has been spared from vineyard to bottle to produce truly elegant, unique and exciting wines with New World flavors and Old World refinement. In 1994 Mission Hill astonished the wine world by winning the "Best Chardonnay Worldwide" Trophy at the International Wine & Spirit competition in London, England. Now, through our dedicated "pruning to bottle" program we produce Oculus, our signature Bordeaux-inspired wine, representing the pinnacle of winemaking in the valley. This is followed by our more recent introduction of our Legacy Series, reflecting distinct characteristics of our vineyards throughout the Valley, in addition to our offering of Single Lot Collection, Reserve and Five-Vineyards Wines.
Our focus on the guest experience is unsurpassed. We welcome over 90, 000 guests from around the world each year, providing unique and tailored experiences for all interests. Our guests are invited to walk through our underground cellars blasted out of the volcanic rock, view our unique Marc Chagall Tapestry, stand on the terrace overlooking our Chardonnay and Pinot Noir vineyards and Lake Okanagan below, and ultimately return to our tasting rooms to taste and talk about our wines with our sommeliers and wine educators.
We work with surrounding organic farms and our own kitchen gardens to provide ingredients for what Travel & Leisure wrote up as 'one of the world's top 5 winery restaurants' as well as trade and private visitors to the winery. In addition to culinary programs in our teaching kitchen, we look to showcase international artists in our on-site grassed amphitheatre.
We offer a competitive base salary and in addition, a performance bonus, a profit sharing plan, an RRSP matching program and a first class benefits program. We are about constantly raising the bar on our wines and guests experiences. We have everything in place, a second-to-none location, facilities, and a committed and passionate owner whose clear objective is to make Mission Hill Family Estate "one of the world's top 10 recognized wineries."
