Photo: Wine Barrel Mission Hill Family Estate Winery BC

A wine barrel placed beneath the entrance arch and keystone at Mission Hill Family Estate Winery in BC, Canada.

The quintessential icon of a vineyard, a wine barrel is one of the first things to greet the visitor to Mission Hill Family Estate Winery situated on the Western shores of Okanagan Lake.

The Okanagan is a region of British Columbia that is perfect for establishing a vineyard with its balmy summers and rich soil, the founder of Mission Hill Family Estate Winery definitely thought so.
