Where in Northwest Wine Country: Nov. 17, 2009


Poll:
Where was this photo taken?

Last week's mystery photo did not fool very many of you.

In fact, 73% of you recognized (or guessed) it as the cannon near Abacela Winery's tasting room in Roseburg, Ore. Just 13% thought it was taken at Ste. Chapelle in Caldwell, Idaho, while 9% wondered if it was from Alder Ridge vineyard near Alderdale, Wash. And just 5% guessed it was taken at Leonetti Cellar in Walla Walla, Wash.

This week's photo, found on Flickr.com, is a stunning shot taken by Andy Simonds of Seattle.
