September 10, 2020, World Suicide Prevention Day, was the day
we chose to release our first single-vineyard Pinot Noir, The Tanaka
Project.
Our
dear friend Ron Tanaka, an artist, poet and scholar, came into our lives in
1983. Often finding inspiration for his works in our vineyards and wines, Ron
loved our Pinots best. He created two sets of poetry directly tied to Mount
Eden, The
Mount Eden Poems and Mountain Wines; A Girl
Grows Up on Mount Eden, amongst
the many pieces he wrote.
Sadly,
Ron took his own life in 2007, leaving us heartbroken.
We
decided to honor our friend by renaming one of our Pinot Noir vineyards, Tanaka and producing this special
wine as a tribute to him. This vineyard site was one of Ron's favorite spots on
the property and has a sense of terroir distinct
from our other estate Pinot Noir vineyards: Only three barrels (approximately
75 cases) of this single-vineyard Pinot Noir are produced.
The 2017 vintage was our first Tanaka
Project release; twenty-five percent of the purchase price has
been donated to support the National Alliance on Mental Illness Santa Clara County
chapter's life-saving mental health services. We are so proud to announce that
over $10,000 has been donated to date.
With our newest Tanaka Project Release, the 2019 vintage, twenty-five percent
of the purchase price will again be donated to a worthy ally supporting mental
health.
