Okanagan Valley, British Columbia

Our wine tour of the Okanagan wine regions of British Columbia began at the Spirit Ridge at Nk'Mip Resort in Osoyoos, BC
We met up with Peter and Lydia from Victoria, BC and Linda and Mike from Alberta for a week of wine tours and enjoying the wonderful landscapes of this region of BC.

Spirit Ridge Resort - unique statues and architecture

Five layers - vineyard, sagebrush, lake, mountain, sky












































The winery at Spirit Ridge - NK'Mip (pronounced "Inka-Meep")
First and only native owned and operated winery - excellent wines!



Mission Hill Winery near Kelowna - our feature destination

We were treated to a sculpture installation on the grounds
by a very interesting artist
The art pieces have a theme - people moving

Bell tower, Chagall meeting room and barrel cellars

The weather got hot enough for the automatic
"people sprayers" to activate
Sending cool mist on everyone below


Vin Object d'Art
Red wine barrels are marked and
tinted with red wine (what else?)
