By Tom Marquardt, Patrick Darr Verified| Capital Gazette Verified When we first heard of Priest Ranch Winery in Napa Valley, we were drawn by the names of its wines. How could you not want to taste a wine called Snake Oil or Coach Gun? So, we did — for several years. And then we just had to talk to winemaker Cody Hurd.

Malbec, a virtually forgotten grape in its ancestral home of Bordeaux, has been reborn in a land thousands of miles away in another hemisphere.
