039 - Shiraz vs Syrah - Penfolds Koonunga Hill Shiraz & Jones of Washington Syrah

(Yes, we know we’re out of order!) After a week of no power and having to record in a cheesy motel, Shelley and Phil are back in the Wine Time Fridays studio with this weeks episode comparing Shiraz and Syrah’s. The Shiraz is a Penfolds Koonunga Hill and the Syrah is from Jones of Washington, and both are easy to find in the Pacific Northwest. Grab a bottle, pour a glass, pull up a chair and relax with Shelley and Phil. #HappyFriday! #ItsWineTime!Wines tasted this episode: 2017 Penfolds Koonunga Hill Shiraz ($16, The Culinary Stone)2015 Jones of Washington Syrah ($20, The Culinary Stone)For more information on this Penfolds Shiraz, please visit https://www.penfolds.com/-/media/Files/Penfolds2/Tasting-Notes/Koonunga-Hill/Shiraz/Penfolds-Koonunga-Hill-Shiraz-2017.ashx?la=en-US&hash=9587056145F1676515DB5AD8F75EE3A0A2719CADFor more information on this Jones of Washington Syrah, please visit https://www.jonesofwashington.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/Online-2015-Syrah-min-1.pdfA special thanks to our sponsors:The Greatest Song You Never Heard Podcast.
