Question about wineries in Kelowna
 
My hubby & I are wondering if anyone can tell us which winery Jillian & the Bachelor were at in a recent episode of The Bachelor? It looked like a beautiful building.

I am sure all of the wineries are nice and we intend to take a tour late spring, but would like to know if anyone can furnish that info for us.

Thanks!

I think it's Mission Hill, a beautiful setting a la Napa/Sonoma. Check out at

PS Mission Hill is elevated, on the Westbank side of Kelowna. Beautiful vistas, gardens with amphitheatre, tasting room, gift shop and view restaurant. Definitely worth a visit!
(The owners actually made loads of money from sales of Mike's Hard Lemonade)

Final message. We've toured the BC Okanagan wineries several times. Nearby Quails Gate has great wines and meals as does east shore Kelowna wineries. The Naramata Benchlands near Penticton is well worth a visit and then there's the sunny Osoyoos area. We love the Burrowing Owl and Tinhorn Creek Pinot Gris etc. Enjoy!

Thank you so much. It looks like a beautiful one. We are looking forward to exploring that and others.
