The Northern Rhône may not be the exact epicenter of where the Syrah vine first appeared (which supposedly is about 35 miles Southeast of there), however it is the benchmark by which all other Syrah wines are measured. The Northern Rhône produces Syrah very unlike other regions in terms of style and it makes it a fascinating region to try to understand. Beyond just reds, there are also 3 other grapes from this area that can claim the Rhône as their place of origin and they are: Viognier, Marsanne and Roussanne.
