S. Anderson 1997 Richard Chambers Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon (Stags Leap District)
- $75
Deep earth, tobacco and dark plums on the nose, and a lovely cool note. Dark fruit on the palate keeps that cool profile going. The flavorful finish rolls on and on, not missing a beat, with beautiful black fruit and espresso notes. An appealing black beauty, best after three years and out through 2010.

S. Anderson 1996 Blanc de Noirs Sparkling (Napa Valley)
- $28
There’s a distinct onion-skin color, and you can smell the Pinot Noir in the raspberry and strawberry aromas that are accented with white chocolate and toasty spices. Rather full-bodied, lush and opulent. There’s something almost syrupy about it, in a good way. But it’s still crisp and dry, and has a Champagne lightness.

S. Anderson 1994 Blanc de Blanc Sparkling (Napa Valley)
- $46
The lightest and most delicate of Anderson’s trio of bubblies this year, this 100% Chardonnay offers clean aromas of coconut, vanilla, lime peel and toast, and drinks fresh and lively. It’s also very dry, and finishes with a slightly bitter almond-skin note.

S. Anderson 1997 Blanc de Noirs Sparkling (Napa Valley)
- $28
Peach, melon and citrus flavors are at the core. The finish is soft and mellow, turning toasty and nutty at the end.

S. Anderson 1997 Brut Sparkling (Napa Valley)
- $28
Bright and fresh, with peach and citrus notes. The wine is light on the palate, but offers a long, toasty finish at the end.

S. Anderson 1997 Merlot (Stags Leap District)
- $30
Aromas of cedar and mocha lead into a medium-bodied wine with a creamy, plush mouthfeel and flavors of tart cherries and tobacco. Cedar accents the softly tannic finish. Ready to drink now.

S. Anderson 1996 Brut Sparkling (Napa Valley)
- $28
This is quite a strong, toasty and fruit-forward bubbly that could stand to be a little more elegant. It has overt aromas and flavors of strawberry and lime, with a pretty edge of coconut and vanilla. Finishes clean and zesty, but loses a few points because of a rough edge to the mouthfeel.
