All along the hills following Blossom Hill Road in San Jose used to be wineries. Very few remnants of these wineries exist because they were replaced with single family homes when the value of the land increased in the 1980's onward. Some of the larger homes on the hills of San Jose / Los Gatos have a few scions.

Wonder if there's any connection in the name of Sakamoto Elementary.

I suspect its named for Paul Sakamoto, though I haven't found anything to say one way or the other yet - https://www.jamsj.org/manabu/paul-sakamoto
