Rooted in France’s Languedoc region, guided by a Burgundian philosophy of elegance, precision, and respect for terroir. Founded as Abbotts and revitalized in 2005 by Laurent Delaunay—fifth-generation winemaker from a Burgundy family—the estate has become known for producing refined, terroir-driven wines that balance concentration with finesse. Today, under the leadership of Jeanne Delaunay, the next generation, the winery continues its evolution, crafting expressive wines that reflect both the richness of the Languedoc and the discipline of Burgundy. By working closely with dedicated growers, practicing meticulous vineyard selection, and applying restrained winemaking, Abbotts & Delaunay delivers wines of authenticity, balance, and character.

PÁŠXA is Place.
A rugged, rocky landscape that shapes wines of unexpected purity and elegance.
From vineyard to cellar, every bottle of PÁŠXA is crafted with meticulous attention to detail. It’s a study in place—a pure expression of the vineyard. If you think you know what The Rocks District can offer, think again—its secrets are just beginning to reveal themselves.
In 2018, we embarked on a journey to explore this fascinating place through a fresh lens. Each bottle of PÁŠXA tells the story of a land defined by extremes—the grapes that thrive here and the refined, expressive wines they become.

Vitae Springs
Planted in 1978 and now farmed organically under no‑till, dry‑farmed, sheep‑grazed practices, this historic Willamette Valley estate tends some of the nation’s oldest self‑rooted white varieties. Native‑yeast, low‑intervention winemaking turns that deep heritage into focused, age‑worthy wines that speak purely of place.
Michel-Schlumberger
Michel-Schlumberger’s first vines were planted in 1979 by Jean-Jacques Michel, a native of Switzerland. Michel traveled extensively across Northern California in search of the perfect location to establish his winery. He quickly recognized the potential of the Dry Creek Valley climate and soils to produce premium Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot, and Chardonnay grapes, and saw the contoured exposures of Wine Creek Canyon, in particular, as ideal for creating unique flavors, especially in red wines.
In 1991, Jacques Pierre Schlumberger joined the winery team, bringing with him a legacy of over 400 years of winemaking in Alsace, France.
It was at this point that the Michel-Schlumberger brand was born. Over the years, the winery’s exceptional wines and the beauty of its estate have garnered global attention and acclaim. The mission-style architecture of the estate reflects Michel-Schlumberger’s European roots while honoring the influence of early Spanish settlers in California. Today, the winery’s white stucco walls, terracotta-tiled roof, bell tower, and grand courtyard create a spectacular setting for a day in Sonoma’s wine country.
Our Estate heritage is also reflected in the guest experience, which includes motorized tours through the vineyards, walking cellar tours through the production area, barrel tastings, and seated reserve tastings of our award-winning, small-production wines
