Abbot’s Passage Winery & Mercantile

Led by Katie Bundschu, the first woman vintner in six generations of Bundschu winemakers, Abbot’s Passage embodies a sense of adventure while breaking new ground. While the Bundschu family has a storied history with Bordeaux-style wines, Katie embraces her affinity for terroir-driven, Rhone-style wines and field blending. Each wine expresses a distinctive soil and climate story to highlight the depth of Sonoma Valley vineyards and beyond. Originally built in 1863, the 60-acre vineyard estate is home to an old stone winery and adjacent tasting room, ripe with charming details such as exposed ceiling trusses and warm natural light. Located in the heart of Glen Ellen, Abbot’s Passage offers a refreshing take on the classic “Sonoma ease” experience, whether you’re new to our valley or a seasoned explorer.
