A treat for the senses at Mission Hill Winery

Wine devotees can participate in the ultimate indulgence in Kelowna’s Mission Hill Winery, where they are hosting their annual summer concert so visitors can take in good food, good music, and of course – good wine.

Overlooking the panoramic Okanagan Valley in the winery’s unique fortress-like setting, this year’s concert features the renowned vocal quartet The Canadian Tenors, who have featured on The Oprah Winfrey Show, and will perform classic songs, as well as songs from their upcoming album.

American rock act Chris Isaak, whose music has been in Top 10 hits and is most celebrated for his famous song “Wicked Game,” will be promoting his latest album Mr. Lucky.

In addition to the music, the winery is also offering special packages for those who want to take advantage of visiting one of the best wineries in Canada. The Reception and Concert package features pre-concert meals, wine pairings and reserved seating before the crowd arrives. Visitors can also go the extra mile and receive The Dinner and Concert package, which includes reserved concert seating and a 3-course meal with wine pairings in their Terrace Restaurant, which was called by Travel + Leisure magazine as “one of the top five winery restaurants in the world.”

While you’re visiting the winery, why not make it a special wine experience and book a private winery tour? Their most intense tour is the 8-hour Day in the Vineyards, which includes a driving tour around their estate vineyards, a lunch with the best wines the vineyard has to offer, and information on the art of wine-growing.

The Canadian Tenors are scheduled to perform on Aug. 17, and Chris Isaak on Aug. 21. For more information, visit missionhillwinery.com
