Anthony Von Mandl – Creating a World Class Winery

Although a graduate in economics, Vancouver-born Anthony Von Mandl realized that wine and food were his real passions. So he apprenticed in the wine trade in Europe, then worked as an importer. He finally invested in a winery of his own – in the largely unknown Okanagan Valley. He tells the ideacity audience the fascinating story of how he overcame many setbacks to build up the Mission Hill winery to produce sophisticated wines for an international audience…and merit a visit by Prince William and Princess Kate as part of their Canada visit in September, 2016.
