offices of the Company is 621 Airpark Road, Napa, California  94558.

ITEM 2.       IDENTITY AND BACKGROUND.

              This statement is being filed by Hook Financial Inc., an exempted
company organized under the laws of the Cayman Islands ("Hook"), and its
address and principal business office is 5810 East Skelly Drive, Suite 1000,

East Skelly Drive, Suite 1000, Tulsa, Oklahoma 74135-6403, is the president and
secretary and sole director of Hook.  Hook has no executive officers, other
than Ms. Hojel.

              This statement is also being filed by Phyllis S. Hojel.  In
addition to being the president and secretary and sole director of Hook, Ms.
Hojel is the trustee under a Voting Trust Agreement governing all of the shares
of voting capital stock of Hook.

              During the last five years, neither Hook nor Phyllis S. Hojel nor
any of Hook's executive officers or directors has been convicted in a criminal
proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors) or has been a
party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body and as a
result of such proceeding was or is subject to any judgment, decree or final
order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities
subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any violations with
respect to such laws.

ITEM 3.       SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION.

              On March 25, 1996, over 99% of the partnership interests in SFI
Intermediate Ltd., a Texas limited partnership ("SFI"), were transferred to
Hook and SFI distributed over 99% of its assets, including all of the shares of
Common Stock beneficially owned by SFI, to Hook.  These transactions
facilitated the ownership and management of certain assets of the Hojel family.

              The transaction facilitated the ownership and management of
certain assets of the Hojel family.

              Except as set forth in this Schedule 13D, neither Hook nor

relate to any of the transactions described in subparagraphs (a) through (j) of
Item 4 to Schedule 13D.

ITEM 5.       INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE INVESTOR.

              As of March 25, 1996, each of Hook and Phyllis S. Hojel
beneficially own an aggregate of 1,756,919 shares of Common Stock,
approximately 21.2% of the 7,596,018 shares outstanding (as reported in the
Company's Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended September 30, 1995).  Hook
and Phyllis S. Hojel share voting power and the power to dispose or direct the
disposition of such 1,756,919 shares of Common Stock.  Except as described
herein, there have been no acquisitions of shares of Common Stock during the
past sixty (60) days by Hook or Phyllis S. Hojel.

ITEM 6.       CONTRACTS, ARRANGEMENTS, UNDERSTANDINGS OR RELATIONSHIPS WITH
              RESPECT TO SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.

              Pursuant to the terms and provisions of a Common Stock Purchase
Agreement dated March 29, 1993 (the "1993 Purchase Agreement"), Hook has the
right, in the event the Company fails to maintain a Board of Directors with at
least nine authorized members, to sell 285,714 shares of Common Stock and an
additional 285,714 shares of Common Stock acquired upon the exercise of certain
warrants back to the Company, if the Company is then legally able to effect a
repurchase, at the then market price of Common Stock.

              Pursuant to the terms and provisions of an Omnibus Agreement
dated as of August 22, 1995 (i) in the event that the Company shall sell any of
its Common Stock, or securities convertible into Common Stock, or grant certain
options for the purchase of Common Stock, Hook shall have the right to purchase
that amount of the particular securities being issued, on the same terms and
conditions as the remainder of the issuance, as will cause Hook's voting power
in the Company immediately after such issuance to be not less than such voting
power immediately prior to such issuance, and (ii) as long as Hook has at least
one designee on the Company's Board of Directors, the Company shall use its
best efforts to cause a designee of Hook to be appointed to the Company's five-
person Executive Committee.

              The foregoing is a summary of certain provisions of the 1993
Purchase Agreement and the Omnibus Agreement and is qualified by and subject to
the more complete information contained in the 1993 Purchase Agreement filed as
Exhibit 2 hereto and the Omnibus Agreement filed as Exhibit 3 hereto,
respectively.
