Marin County has earned a reputation for fine Pinot Noir in recent years. Syrah may be coming on. This 2014 vintage from McEvoy Ranch exhibits the characteristics of a cool-climate Syrah, delivering notes of white pepper and herbs, with a coffee note and lifted blueberry fruit. A Platinum Award winner at the 2018 Sommelier Challenge International Wine & Spirits Competition.
