Photos - Taking a walk around the perimeter of the Hillside Cellar Winery at 1350 Naramata Road close to Naramata. Top row, center frame is a view through a large doorway on the ground floor, southwest corner of the main winery building looking at wine making supplies in bulk. Middle row, frames right and center are of a wooden grape press (Type 5500 manufactured in Summerland, 2002) on display outside in the southeastern corner of the main building.

Photos - Frames left and right: Pholisora Catullus (Common Sooty Wing) Skipper having a drink of nectar from a purple blossom. The dark brown to shiny black color of the wings and body with crescent-shaped rows of white spots on the forewing above are this skipper's trademark. This sootywing flies from March to November and ranges throughout North America from mid-Canada to Northern Mexico.

Center frame: This is a Bucher stainless steel tank used in the aging of wine making process.
