Name Winery and Win Wine #4 & rules













This "Name the Winery and Win Wine" has been informal to this point. And truth be told, more people have emailed me personally than have posted on the blog. So here are some slightly more formal rules:

We will take the correct answers every month or two, draw a name for the winner of a fine bottle of Willamette Valley Vineyards wine.

And here's another possibillity. The photo is of Rollin Soles, the winemaker of the next Name the Winery and Win Wine. The winery is in Dundee, Oregon. Should be easy.

Name Winery, Win Wine #3


I just happened to have this photograph on the hard drive from a recent trip. This isn't a winery, but rather a wine growing region about as far from my nearest town of Sherwood, Oregon as you can get. Yes, those are palm trees along the road between the vineyards.

Name Winery, Win Wine #2

Here's the second Name the Winery and Win Wine challenge:

This is the winery seen from the vineyard rather than the visitor's parking lot.

This sign is seen from the driveway to the winery.

Just in case you missed the May 15 posting, here's a review of the rules:
Periodically, I will post a new photograph(s) of a winery or vineyard somewhere in Oregon or possibly, the world. After a period of as-of-yet undetermined time, a select group of highly-regarded judges will choose one person who has guessed at least some of the wineries/vineyards correctly as the winner.

The prize: a bottle of fine wine from Willamette Valley Vineyards.

The rules are loose, but hurry before I drink the prize.

Name Winery, Win Wine #1

The challenge: Periodically, I will post a new photograph(s) of a winery or vineyard somewhere in Oregon or possibly, the world. After a period of as-of-yet undetermined time, a select group of highly-regarded judges will choose one person who has guessed at least some of the wineries/vineyards correctly as the winner.

The prize: a bottle of fine wine from Willamette Valley Vineyards. (Full disclosure, WVV financially supports the Oregon Wine book I’m currently doing.)

The rules are loose, but hurry before I drink the prize.

Hint: this winery is near Turner and Oregon's capitol and is mentioned in the post copy. Just guess as a comment to this post.


This is the view from the Mystery Winery's vineyard during 2007 harvest.
