    hillside

    The Barrel Room Bistro has just recently been chosen as the BEST CASUAL DINING RESTAURANT in the South Okanagan! Not bad considering we have only been open three months. This fall Hillside will be hosting two wine dinners during the Fall Festival. These dinners will give our guests a chance to experience rare Hillside wines in our rustic and relaxed environment. Also during the Fall Festival our winemaker, Eric von Krosigk, will be facilitating wine and food pairings that promise to be casual and informative.

    As you walk about the grounds of Hillside you might just spot some Big Horn Sheep.

    "My vision is to leave the visitors with an experience
    that they will never forget for the rest of the lives
    ."
    Anthony von Mandl, Mission Hill Family Estate Proprietor

    A major building project is coming to a close at Mission Hill with their new winery, complete with bell tower and under ground cellars. Visitors are welcomed at the Wine & Food Interpretation Centre . Here visitors signing up for tours and getting more information on the winery. Within the centre is a media centre that will show a video on the evolution of the winery and some industry history. The centre also houses a state of the art test kitchen that will be responsible for preparing all wine and food served at the winery. Also included in the construction plans is an amphitheater.

    One of the new features at Mission Hill is the 12 story bell tower. The bells were cast in the Old World tradition by the Paccard Bell Foundry of Annecy, France. With yokes attached, the Bells range in size from more than seven feet tall and 1,600 pounds to just under two feet tall. Each bell is dedicated to a member of the von Mandl family - Anthony, his mother, sister and late father
