Mission Hill Family Estate Hosts Virtual Wine Tasting, with Charcuterie Board Tips, April 23

The Okanagan-based winery is giving wine and food aficionados a new reason to gather online this spring

On Friday, April 23, Mission Hill Family Estate will host a special edition of one of its popular themed virtual events. This Winemaker & Chef virtual tasting brings Mission Hill’s Head Winemaker, Corrie Krehbiel, and Executive Chef, Patrick Gayler on-screen to host a Friday night filled with wine tasting and expert charcuterie board building tips

The virtual tasting allows wine lovers right across Canada to share in an Okanagan wine and food experience.

The experience includes three bottles of Mission Hill wine (2018 Terroir Collection Viognier, 2018 Prospectus Pinot Noir, 2019 Reserve Meritage), courier-delivered to your door, complete with a corkscrew. Prep tips, tasting notes, and a suggested charcuterie shopping list, in case you want to follow along with the chef’s demo, are also included.

“Wherever you are, this is an excellent way to explore all three tiers of Mission Hill winemaking, including the Prospectus Pinot Noir, a wine unlike any other in the Okanagan Valley,” notes Krehbiel.

For his part in the event, Mission Hill winery and Terrace restaurant, Executive Chef Gayler, has assembled “pro tips and personal favourites” to take one of the year’s hottest food trends, charcuterie boards, and make them your own, with ease.

The virtual “happy hour” experience runs for 90-minutes and will include an opportunity for Q&A with both Krehbiel and Chef Gayler, via online chat.
