Where in Northwest Wine Country: Jan. 12, 2010


Poll:
Where was this photo taken?

Last week's mystery photo ended up fooling a majority of you, a rarity amid Wine Press Northwest readers.

In fact, 42% incorrectly guessed the photo was taken at Canoe Ridge Vineyard near Alderdale, Wash., while just 25% correctly identified the scene as Burrowing Owl Vineyards in the southern Okanagan Valley in British Columbia. Meanwhile, 16% each thought the photo was taken either at Abacela Vineyard near Roseburg, Ore., or Del Rio Vineyards in Oregon's Rogue Valley.

This week's photo should provide an equally interesting challenge for you.
