87868652 IMM ORT AL & Design Hidden Ridge Vineyard, LLC December 14, 2018 Laura Golden 103
REQUEST FOR RECONSIDERATION
Applicant Hidden Ridge Vineyard, LLC (the "Applicant") respectfully responds to the December
12, 2018 Final Office Action (the "Office Action") as follows:
I. BACKGROUND
The Examining Attorney has again refused to register the Applicant's mark
IMMORTAL & Jellyfish Design (the "Mark") based on an alleged likelihood of confusion with a prior
registration for the mark THE IMMORTAL ZIN (U.S. Reg. No. 4205173) (the "Cited Mark"), owned by
Peirano Estate Vineyards composed of Lance C. Randolph as a Sole Proprietorship (the "Registrant" or
"Peirano"). Applicant respectfully disagrees with the Examining Attorney that a likelihood of confusion
exists between the marks and requests that the refusal to register be withdrawn.
II. NO SECTION 2(d) LIKELIHOOD OF CONFUSION EXISTS WITH THE CITED MARK
The Examining Attorney contends that the Applicant' s Mark poses a likelihood of confusion
based on a comparison of the Applicant's and Registrant's marks and goods. Applicant disagrees and
submits that an analysis of the relevant DuPont factors clearly favor registration of Applicant' s Mark.
A. LEGAL AUTHORITY
Likelihood of confusion between a mark for which registration is sought and another mark is
determined on a case by case basis, applying relevant factors set out in In re E. I. duPont De Nemours &
Co. , 476 F. 2d 1357, 1361 , 177 U.S.P.Q. 563, 567 (C.C.P.A. 1973); and in Packard Press, Inc. v.
Hewlett-Packard Company, 227 F. 3d 1352, 56 U.S.P.Q. 1351 (Fed. Cir. 2000).
19357338
When refusing a trademark for registration on the Principal Register, the Examining Attorney has
the burden of proof in showing that the applied-for mark is likely to cause confu.~ion with an existing
registrat10n. TMEP § 1207.01. Applicant respectfully contends that the Examining Attorney failed to
properly consider the arguments set forth in Applicant November 8, 2018 Office Action Response and
relied on Inapplicable case law and evidence In maintaining her Section 2(d) refusal.
As previously stated, it is well settled when trademarks are examined, the USPTO is ''not
concerned With mere theoretical possibilities of confusion, deception or mistake or with de minimus
situations but with the practicalities of the commercial world, with which the trademark laws deal."
Electronic Design & Sales, i nc. v. Electronic Data Systems Corp., 21 U.S.P_Q.2d 1388, 1391 (Fed. Cir.
1992). The arguments presented in the Office Actions do not support a finding that that there is a
likelihood of confusion, as opposed to merely a theoretical possibility of confusion between the
Applicant' s Mark and the Cited Marks. As detailed in the initial Office Action Response and below, the
majority of the duPont factors favor Applicant's position that there is no likelihood of confusion between
Applicant's Mark and Registrant ' s Cited Mark.
B. APPLICATION OF THE DUPONT FACTORS PROVES THAT NO LIKELIHOOD OF CONFUSION EXISTS AND THAT APPLICANT'S MARK SHOULD BE REGISTERED
1. The Dissimilarity of the Marks in Their Entireties as to Appearance, Sound, Connotation, and Commercial Impression
As a threshold matter, trademarks must be considered and examined as a whole. See ln re
National Data Corp., 753 F.2d 1056, 1058 (Fed. Cir. 1985); 4 J . Thomas McCarthy, McCarthy on
Trademarks and Unfair Competition ("McCarthy") § 23 :41 (5th ed. 2017) (The "artti-dissection" rule
prohibits breaking composite marks into their component parts). Marks must be examined in appearance.
sound, connotation, and commercial impression in their entireties. See Massey Junior College, lnc. v.
Fashion lnstitute of Technology, Inc., 492 F.2d 1399, 1402 (C.C.P.A.. 1974); see also Homeowners
Group. lnc. v. Home Marketing Specialists, Inc., 931 f.2d 1100, 1109 (6th Cir. 199 l) ("It is the overall
impression of the mark, not an individual feature, that counts.''). Consumers are impressed by a mark as
Lhey see it or bear it, and they do not ordinarily stop to analyze it. See Ex parte Maya de Mexico, I 03
2 19357338
U.S.P.Q. 158 (Comm' r Pat. 1954), cited by lndustria Espanola De Perlas lmitacion. S.A. v. Nat'l Silver
Co., 459 F,2d 1049, 1062 (C.C,P.A. 1972).
In comparing the subject marks, the Examiner alleges that because the term ·•ZJN" is merely
deseriptiYe or generic (and thus disclaimed), the dominant element of the Cited Mark is the tcnn
" IMMORTAL." The Examiner then concludes that because Applicant entered "IMMORTAL" as the
literal element of its mark, Appllcant' s Mark therefore is identical. However, this approach violates the
anti-dissection rule. Again, " [t]he basic principle in determining confusion between marks is that marks
must be compared in their entireties . .. It follows from that principle that like lihood of confusion cannot
be predicated on dissection of a mark, that is, on only part of a mark." fn re Nat'l Data Corp., 753 F.2d al
I 058, 224 U.S.P.Q. at 750-51 (emphasis added). While the Examiner considered the li teral element
" Immortal," no consideration was given to the distinctive je llyfish design feature that is the centerpiece
of App licant' s Mark and is much large than the word "Immortal ."
Not only does the Examiner ignore the distinctive jellyfish design, the Examiner ignores
Applicant's description of the Mark and the numerous colors claimed in the Mark, as well as the
USPTO's designation of six design search codes that further demonstrate the heightened degree of
distinctiveness in Applicant's Mark detailed below:
• Description of Mark: The mark consists or the term IMMORTAL, where the "O" is depicted by
the stylized immortal jellyfish. The jellyfish bas a red shape internally, surrounded in blue and
white bubbles, with white rays emanating from it. A background of black rays with black an<l
blue dots emanating appears behind the immortal jellyfish. The tentacles of the immortal
jellyfish hang beneath the body, and are white within the black background.
• Colors Claimed: The color(s) red, black, blue, gray and white is/are claimed as a feature of the
mark.
• Design Search Codes:
J 19157338
o 03.19.05 - Manta rays; Jellyfish; Eels; Octop1; Snake- like tish (eels, etc.), squid, octopi;
Stingrays; Squid
o 25.03.25 - Backgrounds covered with other figurative elements or repetitive designs,
words or letters; Repetitive designs, words, or letters as a background
o 26. I 7.0 l - Lines, straight; Bars, straight; Bands, straight; Straight line(s), band(s) or
bar(s)
o 26. 17.04 - Bands, vertical; Bars, vertical; Lines, vertical; Vertical line(s), band(s) or
bar(s)
o 26.17.05 - Bands, horizontal; Bars, horizontal; Lines, horizontal; Horizontal line(s),
band(s) or bar(s)
o 26.1 7.06 - Bands, diagonal; Diagonal linc(s), band(s) or bar(s); Bars, diagonal; Lines,
diagona l
See Serial No. 87868652 ('"652 App.").
In this case, Applicant's Mark and the Cited Mark have so little in common, no likelihood of
confusion exists. The mere fact that the marks at issue share an element does not compel a likelihood of
confusion finding. See Gen. Mills, Inc. v. Kellogg Co., 824 F.2d 622, 627 (8th Cir. 1987) ("The use of
identical, even dominant, words in common does not automatically mean that two marks are similar.") .
Any risk of confusion stemming from the use of "IMMORTAL" is erased by the fact that the Mark is
highly stylized- a large, colorful image of a jellyfish- which creates a completely commercial
impression from the Cited Mark. As previously contended, the Mark does not contain a standard
character "O" like the Cited Mark. Rather, the colorful body of the jellyfish is used in place of the
standard character "O." The side-by-side comparison below clearly depicts completely different
appearances and commercial impressions between the subject marks:
Ill
//I
19357338 4
Cited Mark Applicant's Mark
m m R A
THE IMMORTAL ZIN
The stylized jellyfish is clearly the dominant element of Applicant's Mark. In fact, a consumer
must carefully examine the Mark before realizing the letters in conjunction with a jellyfish form the term
"IMM ORT AL." Instead, when consumers initially encounter the Mark, they first see the jellyfish with
" IMM" on the left side of it, and "RIAL" on the right side of it. Only after carefully examining the
Mark, will consumers realize that the body of the jellyfish forms the letter "O."
Further, once consumers carefully examine the Mark, consumers will quickly realize the Mark
represents an aquatic creature famously known for its defiance of death. Specifically, the turritopsis
dohrnii is commonly known as the "immortal jellyfish" because - unless it succumbs to infection or
predation - the immortal jellyfish can avoid death by morphing forward and backward through its life
cycle for eternity and is thus capable of living forever. See June 13, 2019 Declaration of Matthew D.
Francis ("Francis Deel.") (Exhibit A); see June 12, 2019 declaration of Timothy Martin ("Martin Deel."),
~ 6. By contrast, the Cited Mark describes its "Old Vine" Zinfandel wine that is produced from "old"
Zinfandel vines-vines that are notoriously known to be aged grape vines. In fact, Registrant's webpage
provides that THE IMMORTAL ZIN is produced from " 120-year-old Zinfandel vines." See Francis Deel.
(Exhibit B). Consequently, the overall commercial impression of Applicant's highly stylized lettering
and logo design of an "immortal" jellyfish is distinctly different from the Cited Mark's appearance and
commercial impression of a Zinfandel vine, such that no consumer is likely to be confused between the
two marks. Therefore, this factor favors registration of Applicant's Mark as the subject marks are
different in their entireties, namely appearance, connotation, and commercial impression.

2. The Similarity or Dissimilarity of Established, Likely-to-Continue Trade Channels
Applicant markets and sells its wme through its website
https://www.immortalestate.com/, where Applicant has sold its 2014 Slope " Immortal" wine
bearing the Mark since March of 2019. Ma1iin Deel. , ~ 8 (Exhibit A). In addition to marketing
and selling its wine on its website, Applicant has a hospitality team comprised of wine
professionals that that conduct private tasting appointments for groups of 4-8 people. Martin
Deel., ~ 8 (Exhibit A). Applicanl also caters hjgh-end dinners where potential wine purchasers
who are willing to pay a substantial amount of money for bottles of wine, attend. Martin Deel., ~I
8. While some of Applicant' s wine is in distribution which occasional1y ends up for sale on
sophisticated websites aimed at wine connoisseurs, most sales are made via Applicant' s website,
wine tastings, and private dinners. Id.
By contrast, Registrant' s inexpensive Zinfandel is not available through the same
channels as Applicant-e.g., Applicant's website, Applicant's private wine tastings, or
Applicant's private dinners. Id. Applicant does not mass produce wine, nor does Applicant
target consumers who purchase $12-$50 bottles of wine. Id. Of note, Applicant only produces
approximately 4,000 cases of wine per year, compared to Registrant which produces
approximately 62,000 cases of wine per year. Francis Deel. (Exhibit T).
While Applicant does not dispute that fact that both Applicant and Registrant sell wine,
and both seek to protect their trademarks for "wine," the wine that Applicant and Registrant sell
is very different. Applicant sells a Cabernet Sauvignon while Registrant sells a Zinfandel.
Martin Deel. , ~ 7. Importantly, these two types ofwine are sold in different sections ofa given
store or website. Id.; see also Francis Deel. (Exhibits C, S). As the types of wine are quite
different, Applicant's Mark is not likely to be confused with the Cited Mark.
6 19357338
The Examiner argues that a "consumer running to the store to pick up a bottle of
IMMORTAL wine, might choose to pick up a bottle of a zinfandel, namely, THE IMMORTAL
ZIN. As a result, the marks create the same commercial impression and consumers are likely to
believe that wines offered under the IMMORTAL mark are offered by the same entity."
However, the Examiner' s " running to the store" example is misplaced because it is highly
unlikely that Applicant1s and Registrant's wine would be sold at the same store. Furthennore, as
discussed below, consumers are assumed to act with care to make sure they purchase the right
brand or product desired, and therefore, even if Registrant' s and Applicant's different types of
wine were sold at the same store, a purchaser looking for Applicant' s expensive Cabernet
Sauvigrion is not going to mistakenly purchase a $12-.$16 bottle of Registrant's Zinfandel.
Therefore, confusion is unlikely, and this factor favors registration of Applicant's Mark.
3. The Conditions Under Which and Buyers to \Vhom Sales are Made, i.e., "lmpulse" vs. Careful, Sophisticated Purchasing
The "law assumes that the ordinary buyer acts with some degree of care to see that he or
she gets the brand of product or service desired.'' 4 McCarthy § 23.93, citing Hiram Walker &
Sons. lnc. v. Penn-Maryland Corporation, 79 F.2d 836, 839 (2nd Cir. 1935). A reasonably
prudent buyer is not indifferent or foolish. See 4 McCarthy 23.94. In Star Indi1slries, Inc. v.
Bacardi & Co. Ltd., 4 12 F.3d 3 73, 390 (2nd Cir. 2005), the Second Circuit found that "unhurried
customers in the relaxed environment of a liquor store, making decisions about $12. to $24.
purchases, may be expected to exhibit sufficient sophistication to distinguish between
[plaintiffs] and Bacardi ' s products, which are similarly labeled.;' As such, the Second Circuit
found that no likelihood of confusion existed. id.
As mentioned above, Applicant and Registrant do not sell wines in the same trade
channels. Applicant's and Registrant' s wines never be sold at the same winery, and it is highly
7 19357338
unlikely that they will be available in the same liquor store, on the same website or anywhere
else. While both parties operate separate and distinct websites for their wineries where their
respective consumers can purchase wine, there is no chance that Internet customers will be
confused regarding the source or origin of the parties' respective goods.
Registrant's website is located at www.peirano.com, and "The Tmmortal Zin" is one of
twelve Peirano wines available on its website. See Francis Deel. (Exhibits B, D). Registrant's
"The Immortal Zin" appears in stylized format with a halo that appears over "The Immortal Zin"
and next to information about Peirano Estate Vineyards and other information about the
winemaker and tasting notes. Id. There is only one wine offered for sale by Registrant under the
Cited Mark. Id. Registrant does not sell any Cabernet under the Cited Mark. Id. A bottle of
Registrant's 2014 "The Immortal Zin" costs $16 on the Registrant's website and as cheap as
$11.99 on www.totalwine.com. Francis Deel. (Exhibits B, E).
By contrast, Applicant only sells one type of wine- Cabernet Sauvignon-on its website.
Martin Deel. (Exhibit A). Applicant's Cabernet Sauvignon wine bottles bear the distinctive
jellyfish design and range in price from $97-$303 per bottle. Id. A consumer that purchases
Applicant's wine through Applicant's website, or at Applicant' s private tastings or dinners, is an
individual willing to spend a substantial amount of money to purchase Applicant's wine. Martin
Deel., ~ 8. These individuals will not likely believe Applicant is affiliated with or sponsored by
Reg1strant
The Examiner argues that " it is common for wine labels to offer wines at various price
points, labeled under simi1ar marks . ... As such, the fact that applicant's and registrant's wines
are offered at different price points does not mitigate the impression that they could be offered by
the same winery." This evidence is in-elevant because the facts show that Applicant only sells its
8 19357338
Cabernet Sauvignon at a high price point ($97-$303 per bottle), and Registrant only sells its
Zinfandel at a low price point ($16 or less). Martin Deel. (Ex.hibit A); Francis Deel. (Exhlbits 8,
E). Further, Applicant does not currently sell wine below $97 per bottle, nor does Applicant
intend to lower its prices in the future. Martin Deel. , , 8. Furthermore, as discussed below, the
United States government's Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau ("TTB"), has strict laws
governing the sales of alcoholic beverages and requires that labels indicate exactly the source of tne wine.
See if!(ra. Applicant's and Registrant's labels must clearly state where their respective Cabernet
Sauvignon and Zlnfandel is produced and bottled - which are different vineyards. Id. Therefore, this
factor favors registration of Applicant's Mark as confusion is unlikely.
4. The Fame of the Prior Mark
The Examiner presented no evidence that Registrant's Cited Mark is famous or even a strong
mark. It is not, and this factor favors registration of Applicant's Mark.
5. The Number and Nature of Similar Marks in Ose on Similar G9ods
Here, numerous parties use the word " Immortal" for wine. In addition to the Cited Mark.
Applicant respectfully submits evidence of four third-party registrations and one third-party application
containing the term " IMMORTAL" as shown in the table below. Francis Deel. (Exhibits F-J).

The coexistence oftl1esc thfrd party applications and registrations, each covering wine or other
alcoholic beverages, demonstrates that the Cited Mark can only be afforded a very narrow scope of
protection. See Palm Bay Imps .. inc. v. Veuve Clicquot Ponsardin Maison Fondee en 1772, 396 r:.Jd
1369, 1373-74 (Fed. Cir. 2005) ('"Evidence of third party use of simi lar marks on similar goods is relevant
to show that a mark is relative1y weak and entitled to only a narrow scope of protection") (citations
omitted). Because the public is accustomed to seeing a variety of marks featuring the word IM.MORT AL,
consumers will naturally look to other elements, including stylized design features to distinguish the
source of the goods. See TMEP § 1207.0 I (d)(iii).
The marks identified above are particularly informative: 8 IMMORTALS (not stylized),
lMMORT AL HERO (not stylized), and MONARCH IMMORTAL (not stylized). Each of these marks
for wine was filed after the Cited Mark, but none of these marks were issued a likelihood of confusion
refusal based on the Cited Mark. Francis Deel. (Exhibits K-M). Additionally, IMMORTAL SPIRITS &
DISTTI~LTNG COMPANY & Design (with "SPlRTTS & DISTILUNG COMPANY" disclaimed) and
IMMORTAL IPA (un-stylized with "IPA" disclaimed) were filed after the Cited Mark and registered
with disclaimers. Francis Deel. (Exhibits N-0). If the Examiner is correct in her assertion that
disclaimed matter in a mark is generally insignificant in affecting its commercial impression, then these
rights should not be able to coexist with the Cited Mark. In this instance, such minor differences in
wording- irrespective of descriptiveness-and the un-stylized features nonetheless serve to sufficiently
10 19357338
alter the marks' commercial impression to avoid consumer confusion. As Applicant's Mark is far more
distinctive with a highly stylized jellyfish design that is the centerpiece of the Mark, an ample amount of
space exists for Applicant' s Mark to join this field without any confusion.
In addition, the Examiner argues that IMMORTAL HERO is more distinct from Applicant's
Mark because IMMORTAL modifies the non-descriptive wording HERO to allegedly create a more
distinct commercial impression than Applicant's Mark. Applicant respectfully submits that the
Examiner's argument is conclusory and without the requisite amount of evidence to overcome
Applicant's arguments. Of note, the Examiner seemingly ignored Applicant's submission of third party
registration for 8 IMMORTALS-the Examiner was unable to explain why this mark is more distinct and
capable of registration than Applicant's Mark. Francis Deel. (Exhibits F, K). Applicant also submits
additional evidence of MONARCH IMMORTAL for wines, which as noted above, did not receive a
§2(d) Office Action refusal based on the Cited Mark. Francis Deel. (Exhibits H, M). The side-by-side
comparison below clearly shows that Applicant's Mark is a highly stylized design and far more far more
distinctive mark than any of the third party citations to IMMORTAL-formative word marks, such that
Applicant's Mark is worthy of registration among these existing marks.

Applicant further submits that real-world consumers who encounter the marks for wine products
in the marketplace would not likely be confused as to source, especially since Applicant's wine will most
likely never be sold at the same location as any of the foregoing wines. Martin Deel. , iriJ 7-8. As

without any evidence of confusion:

*Specimen (label) from 8 IMMORTALS application was applied to a blank wine bottle for context
See Francis Deel. (Exhibits K-L, P-Q); Martin Deel. (Exhibit A).
In light of the significant coexistence of other IMM ORT AL-formative marks on the Principal
Register and the resulting narrow scope of protection for the Cited Mark, Applicant believes it has
established that there is no likelihood of confusion with the Cited Mark due to distinct differences in the
respective marks and the distinct commercial impressions created by the subject marks-namely
Applicant's stylized jellyfish design and font.
As the Examining Attorney fails to provide any evidence or explain why she believes Applicant's
evidence of third party registrations are distinct from the Cited Mark, this factor weighs in favor of
registration. Therefore, Applicant's Mark is capable of coexisting with these four other Immortal wines
without any likelihood of confusion.

6. The Nature and Extent of Any Actual Confusion
Applicant has not received a phone call, email, letter, or any other type of correspondence or
communication from any third party asking or assuming that Applicant is affiliated or connected with
Registrant. Martin Deel., ,, 9. There has been no actual confusion to date and this factor favors
registration.
7. The. Length of Time During and the Conditions Under Which There has been Concurrent Use Without Evidence of Actual Confusion
Applicant's website launched in February of 20 18, and the fuJl version of the website as it exists
today went live in July of2018. Martin Deel. , ii J 0, Sales of wine bearing the Mark commenced in
March of 2019, while sales of 2014 Impassable Mountain Reserve Immortal wine bearing the
Mark in a different color commenced in October of 2018. Id. A statement of Lise for the '652 App.
was filed on June 6, 20J 9, and was accepted on June 13, 2019.
Based on these facts, Applicant' s and Registrant's respective websites have coexisted for
more than 15 months, and goods bearing the same or similar mark have been for sale for months.
Therefore, this factor favors registration of Applicant's Mark as confusion is unlikely to ensue. Martin
Deel., ii 9.
8. The Market Interface Between the Applicant and the Owner of a Prior Mark
There is zero mark.et interface between Appbcant and Registrant. Martin Deel.,~ 9. This factor
favors registration.
9. The Extent of Potential Confusion
No potential confusion exists in light of the parties' separate and distinct marks, goods, and trade
channels. See supra. This factor favors registration.
l O. Any Other Established Fact Probative of the Effect of Use
As stated in the November 8, 20J 8 Office Action, the alcohol industry is highly re.b'lliated and the
United States government, and specificaJly the TTB, has strict laws governing the sales of alcoholic
beverages. Under applicable law, wine labels must conlain specific infotmation, including which estate
14 l 9357338
bottled the wine, what valley the wine originated in, and the name and address of the bottler or importer.
See Francis Deel. (Exhibit R). Applicant's Immortal wine labels all state that they are "PRODUCED &
BOTTLED BY HIDDEN RIDGE VINEY ARD, AMERICAN CANYON, CA." Martin Deel.,~ 11
(Exhibit B). This makes clear that Applicant's Cabernet Sauvignon is not produced or bottled by Peirano,
and confusion is therefore unlikely. This factor favors registration.
III. MARK DESCRIPTION
Applicant accepts the Examiner' s proposed revised description:
The mark consists of the black wording IMM ORT AL, where the "O" is depicted by the
stylized immortal jellyfish. The jellyfish has a red shape internally, surrounded in blue
and white bubbles, with white rays emanating from it. A background of black rays with
black and blue dots emanating appears behind the immortal jellyfish. The tentacles of the
immortal jellyfish hang beneath the body, and are white within the black background,
and black, blue, and gray beneath it.
IV. CONCLUSION
Applicant respectfully submits that the Examining Attorney's formal and informal points of
objection have been resolved and requests publication of the mark. If any further prosecution is required
and may be accomplished via telephone, the Examining Attorney is encouraged to contact Applicant's
Attorney of Record. Thank you for your time and consideration.
Respectfully Submitted,

DECLARATION OF TIMOTHY MARTIN
I, Timothy Martin, do hereby declare as follows:
1. I am a Member of Applicant Hidden Ridge Vineyard, LLC. I have
personal knowledge of the facts which are hereinafter related and make this Declaration
on the basis of such personal knowledge. If called to testify at any hearing or trial
regarding the above-matter, I swear I could testify competently to the matters stated
herein.
2. I have been involved in the restaurant and wine industry my entire adult
life, and started working in a restaurant when I was eleven years old. After two
accomplished decades working in restaurant and hospitality management, I began
working with legendary vintner Robin Lail, and her wine project, Lail Vineyards. After
helping establish and grow the Lail brand for ten years, I launched my own branding and
marketing company in 2004 called Gauge Branding with my partner Mark Wiegard.
3. In 2008, I began a joint venture, Tusk Estates, with my friends Michael
Uytengsu and Philippe Melka. Our goal was to create the next great luxury wine brand,
which we succeeded in doing. Single bottles of Tusk Cabernet Sauvignon average over
USD$850.
4. In addition to these ventures, I also formed other ventures including
Carbon, the premier hospitality and DTC wine sales service for next generation cult
wineries and Kitchen Collective, America 's first urban cooking club.
5. The winery from which Immortal Estate wines are created was planted in
Mayacamas Mountains in California in 1990. In 2004, wine maker Timothy Milos
created Hidden Ridge Vineyard where Applicant' s Cabernet Sauvignon is produced and
bottled. Mr. Milos has been the sole winemaker since 2008, and prior to working at
Hidden Ridge, worked at a number of well-known wineries in Northern California,
including Stag ' s Leap Wine Cellars, Opus One and CliffLede Vineyard.
19358085
6. Our new Immortal brand was created as a tribute to all things timeless.
With Immortal, my business partner Randy Nichols and I, along with Timothy Milos,
have aimed to create something beautiful that will outlive those currently working to
conceive it. Our beautiful vineyard was terraced out of the hillside by the previous owner
who unfortunately passed away from Cancer in 2016, but his work and legacy live on in
the unique land. The immortal jellyfish is the only animal on the planet we know of that
can live forever. It continuously reproduces its cell back to a youth state. Our mission at
Immortal is to continue to reproduce our energy into this vineyard with wines that will
last longer than the team creating them. We may be gone 50 years from now, but the
wines we create will still be very much alive and drinkable. Our hard work and legacy
will be left behind in each of the bottles we artfully produce.
7. I am familiar with Peirano Estate and their "The Immortal Zin" Zindandel
wme. We do not sell a Zinfandel, but instead sell Cabernet Sauvignon. There are many
types of red wines, and these two types of wine do not appear together in wine stores, but
are instead found in different sections of a given store or website.
8. We market and sell our wme through our website
https://www.immortalestate.com/, where we have sold our 2014 Slope "Immortal" wine
bearing the applied-for Mark since March of 2019. A true and correct copy of our
website is attached hereto as Exhibit A. In addition to marketing and selling its wine on
our website, we have a hospitality team comprised of wine professionals that that conduct
private tasting appointments for groups of 4-8 people. See Exhibit A,
https://www.immortalestate.com/experience. We also cater high-end dinners where
potential wine purchasers who are willing to pay a substantial amount of money for
bottles of wine, attend. While some of Applicant's wine is in distribution which
occasionally ends up for sale on sophisticated websites aimed at wine connoiseurs, most
sales are made via our website, wine tastings, and private dinners. Suffice to say that
2 19358085
Peirano's inexpensive Zinfandel is not available on our website, at our private wine
tastings or at private dinners. We have not and do not intend to mass produce our wine,
and we do not target consumers who purchase $12-$50 bottles of wine. It is important to
note that we only produce approximately 4,000 12-pack cases of wine per-year, which is
profoundly different than large vineyards, including Peirano's.
9. We have not received any phone call, emails, letter, or any other type of
correspondence or communication from any third party asking or assuming we are
affiliated or connected with Peirano. We have absolutely zero market interface with
Peirano.
10. We launched our website https://www.immortalestate.com/ in February of
2018, and the full version of the Site as it exists today went live in July of 2018. Sales of
our 2014 Impassable Mountain Reserve Immortal goods bearing the applied-for mark in
white on a black label commenced in October of 2018, and sales of goods bearing the
exact applied-for mark commenced in March of 2019.
11. All of our Immortal wine bottle labels state as follows: "PRODUCED &
BOTTLED BY HIDDEN RIDGE VINEY ARD, AMERICAN CANYON, CA." A true
and correct copy of a sample label is attached hereto as Exhibit B.
The undersigned, being warned that willful false statements and the like are
punishable by fine or imprisonment, or both, under 18 U.S.C. § 1001 , and that such
willful false statements and the like may jeopardize the validity of the application or
document or any registration resulting therefrom, declares that all statements made of his
own knowledge are true; and all statements made on info1mation and belief are believed
to be trne.

During my time spent with members of the Immortal Estate and Amici Cellars teams, I liked hearing about some of the unseen, often costly,
work that goes into producing a premium pro duct. Drones with infrared sensors f ly over
head to determine particular areas of a vineyard that need attention. It is not unusual to harvest
one part of a vineyard, then bring the crew back at additional expense ten days later when other vineyard blocks are deemed ready for picking.

CULTIVATING LUXURY
Immortal Estate's quest for perfection.
It is safe to say that Immortal Estate founder Tim Martin has gleaned his share of knowledge of Northern California wine terroir
over the years. Early in his career he held positions with Lail Vineyards before starting several enterprises, including Tusk Estates, whose coveted vintages are only sold to friends-of-friends, with a IO-year waiting list. But when Martin first visited the Sonoma County vineyard that he and his partners would buy and rebrand as Immortal Estate, he knew the moment he turned off the road
from Spring Mountain that this place was something different.
"When you turn to the left," he explains, "you drive Indiana Jones
style for about a mile, deep into the woods. Further into the mountains ... you're in the jungle. There are no vineyards around, it's not your typical bougie thing that's been built:'
The steep spot where Immortal's vineyards grow appears on a 19th-century stagecoach map, identified with the inscription "Impassable Mountain." Today it remains inaccessible during rainy season; the property is not normally used to host visitors. What makes the place distinctive is a natural spring that feeds the property's ponds, and the 55° slope that had been terraced and planted by the prior owners in the 1990s, a far steeper incline than would be permitted today under county regulations.
That terroir, which produced Cabernet that garnered a 100-point score from Robert Parker, is what convinced Timothy Milos, the winemaker who had crafted that wine, to accept Martin's offer to continue as winemaker under the new ownership, with an eye toward greater successes ahead.
"Someone said to me, 'How do you get better than a hundred points?"' Martin says. "Points are very arbitrary, very subjective,
80 I CENTHY I MAY 2019
one person's opinion. I respect it and appreciate it, but I believe that you should always be striving to do more, and what I know is
that this vineyard can actually do better, and so did Timothy!' As Martin speaks, his fiancee Jessica Biggins, who handles the
marketing side of the business, pours from a decanter a glass of Immortal Estate's 2014 Impassable Mountain Cabernet. A welcome spiciness is notable on the mid-palate. Just a couple of weeks earlier, Immortal had released its second label, a more fruit-for
ward mountain Cabernet called Slope, at a more accessible price point than Impassable Mountain.
"You see vineyards like this in
Europe;' Martin says of the steep terraces, recalling time he spent in Bordeaux with winemaker Philippe Melka. "You don't see them here. One of the things we're doing is going through all the blocks,
and the ones that are good but not great, we're ripping them out and starting over." The plan is to replant the whole vineyard over the next 10 years or so, taking greater
care with the selection of root stock and clones than Martin believes was done for the original planting.
As we sip our Slope, talk turns to the conditions the Northern California wine country has endured over the past couple years: wildfires and, more recently, flooding. Martin views such events philosophically as part of what makes his job a happy challenge.
"Generally, if you're making a luxury good-a car, a watchyou're doing it in the containment of a shop, and you can control all the elements. We're still subject to Mother Nature. Wine is unique in the luxury space, in that a good portion of the entire project is completely not in your control. Therein lies part of the adventure and fun;' he says. "And also for us, a lot of the stress. It keeps everyone in this industry on our toes:' •

0 Can Cabernet from Sonoma Be as World-Class as Top Ones from Napa? I\ I t robbreport.com/food-d rin kiwi ne/a-cabernet-sauvignon-from-sonoma-thats-as-great-as-one-from-napa-2841269/
By Sara L. Schneider on February12, 2019 February 12, 2019
Among the dozens of perfect-100 scores Robert Parker Ir. awarded the 2013 vintage, one
went to an almost-unknown Cabernet. Parker said this in The Wine Advocate: "This wine is nearly immortal, drinking well young, and for those with the patience and wisdom to wait
25 to 35 years, a legacy wine from Sonoma." For many Cab connoisseurs, this "Impassable
Mountain" from the former Hidden Ridge Vineyard was a revelation, not only because the winery was obscure, but also because of that last bit-the wine was from Sonoma.
For his part, Tim Martin, who, with partner Randy Nichols, acquired the property in 2017,
is excited to tell the world that Sonoma can produce world-class Cabernet Sauvignon.
"This is a wine about place," he says. Parker might have discovered the wine, but it was the site Nichols loved. Tucked on the steep slopes of the Mayacamas, these precipitous
vineyards- in 25 small blocks- undulate around knolls and ridges, creating a bowl of
sorts. According to Martin, air from Sonoma's Petaluma Gap is drawn in and caught here
https://www.immortalestate.com/press 1/2
in a cooling swirl.
These are, in fact, vineyards that could never be planted today. Topping out at 55-degree
slopes, they're way too steep for new regulations. But the variations in elevation and aspect they create translate, as far as Martin is concerned, into complex wines, wines that could come from no other place.
Martin, known in wine-collector circles as the partner (with Philippe Melka) in top-rated
Tusk wines, has rebranded Hidden Ridge as Immortal Estate, and his goal-with
winemaker Timothy Milos, who has been with the vineyards through their Hidden Ridge
years and who Martin describes as a "nerdy chemist"-is nothing short of producing the best Cabernet in Sonoma. But to do that (Parker's 100 for the '13 notwithstanding), he
says, investment is called for. You have to put substance behind a goal like that: Nutrients
need to go back into the land, parcels need to be replanted, practices adjusted in the vineyard ... Some things in these wild hills defy taming, though. Vineyard manager Juan
Servin, also a seasoned part of the team, recently sent out a cryptic warning: "Be carefulthere's a bear roaming around out here!"
Immortal Estate's 2014 signature Impassable Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon ($303-
Martin isn't fond of round, straightforward numbers) is a dark, complex beauty, seesawing
between savory and sweet notes. Blackberry aromas are layered with haunting florals and earthy crushed rock, while generous red and black fruit on the palate is layered with
cedar and spice and balanced with a powerful, grippy structure.
The 2014 Slope Cabernet might be slightly more approachable at an early age, but it
harbors its own share of complexity-beautiful violet and cassis aromas followed by a
silky (but powerful) palate of ripe berries, savory herbs, baking spice, and dark chocolate (a terrific deal at $97).
Which brings us to jellyfish. (You'd expect talk of jellyfish in a piece on Cabernet, right?) It
turns out there's a minuscule species with the capability of reverting to its primitive, polyp
stage and then forming a new polyp colony, theoretically living forever. The striking likeness of the Immortal creature on the black bottle, glowing as if lit from behind,
connects the dots for Martin-the longevity of the wine described by Parker, the ability
people have to live on when they invest in others ... and the immortality we approach when we create certain things. "Bottles of wine," says Martin, "are time stamps." These
particular bottles have the stamp of impossible, impassible slopes high on the Sonoma side of the Mayacamas Mountains. The Immortal Collector Pack ($1,414), which includes
an etched magnum and two 750s, would certainly make that memorable.

K&L Wine Merchants Top 10: 2013 Hidden Ridge "55% Slope" Sonoma CountyCabernet Sauvignon
• klwines.com/p/i
SKU #1352410 97 points Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
• The 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon 55% Slope comes from the Sonoma
side of the Mayacamas Mountains. It is 100 % Cabernet Sauvignon from a
vineyard planted at 1,700 feet. This is a remarkable wine and reminiscent
of the great classics from the golden era of the Mayacamas on the Napa
side (such as the 1968, 1970, 1973 and 1974) come to mind when tasting
this beauty. It is simply loaded. Dense purple in color, the wine has notes
of licorice, creme de cassis, Asian plum sauce, cedar wood and earth.
Full-bodied, opulent and irresistible already, it is capable (because of the
impeccable balance and purity) of aging 20-25 or more years. This is a
modern-day classic that could compete with very finest Cabernet-based
wines in the world. (RP) 97+ • (3/2016)

By: James Bradshaw I K&L Staff Member I Review Date: 1117 /2018 I Send Email It's no secret that the 2013 vintage for Cabernet in California's North Coast was phenomenal. And this sterling effort from Hidden Ridge is certainly no exception. This is high-elevation Cab at its best. Unlike its brethren on the other side of the Mayacamas Range, this 2013 is stately and demure (as opposed to rambunctious and raucous). Don't get me wrong, there's no shortage of bold, dark fruits and excellent wood spice, but it's framed in a reserved manner. The overall effect is tantalizing. Plum, cassis, mocha, cedar, Asian spice, and anise seed all work together to create an experience that captivates from the first sip to the last. It is an absolute joy to drink now, but I can't wait to see what it does ten to twenty years down the line. A top-notch wine in every way. Don't miss it.
By: Ryan Moses I K&L Staff Member I Review Date: 1117 /2018 I Send Email It only takes one quick sniff to see the remarkable pedigree here as fine aromas of pure black cherry, bright florals, and dark chocolate emerge from the glass. The palate is incredibly focused, full of deep red fruits and a laser-like acidity. The purity and refinement are striking and speak loudly to the amazing vintage. There is structure here to spare. This is one of those wines that leaves you imagining how it will evolve, and at the relatively modest price you can probably squirrel away a few bottles to find out. Drink now with a long decant, or cellar for five years and enjoy for the following 15-plus. A terrific wine and a great example of the heralded 2013s.

Return To Forever (Immortal Estate's Inaugural Release) • I winedude.com/return-to-forever -immortal-estates-inaugural-release/
December 6, 2018
The steep slopes at Hidden Ridge, back in 2010
Sometimes, the wine business is a very, very small place. Also, I am about to talk about
jellyfish. You've been warned ...
While in San Francisco recently for the SF International Wine Competition (more on the results
of that in a couple of weeks), I caught up with wine marketing maven Tim Martin. Longtime
1 WO readers might recognize Tim's name from way back in 2012, when apparently (according
to Tim, anyway) I was the first person to write about Tim's Napa Valley project, Tusk. "We've
got a ten year waiting list on Tusk now," Tim mentioned, which I suppose is much more a
tribute to that brand's cult status, and the prowess of winemaker Philippe Melka than it is to
my influence. I mean, as far as I know, even my mom doesn't read 1WD.
Anyway ...
https://www.immortalestate.com/press 1/4
It turns out that in the five-plus
years since we last met, Martin
has been busy lining up another
potential cult classic, and this one
already has some connection to
previous 1 WD coverage - it
happens to be the next iteration of
Hidden Ridge, which even /onger
time 1 WD readers might recall
from when I visited that stunning
Sonoma estate. on the very edge
of the Napa Valley border, back in
The late Lynn Hofacket (photographed in 2010)
2010. At the time, I marveled at why the prices for their reds were so low.
After Hidden Ridge patriarch Lynn Hofacket - who planted the vineyards on the steep hills of
that estate (some of which literally match the great pyramids in slope percentage) - passed
away, his wife Casidy ward eventually (though not without some trepidation, as I've been told)
sold the vineyards to what would become the team behind what would become Immortal
Estate (Hidden Ridge winemaker Timothy Milos remains a part of the team).
It was Hofacket's passing, which nearly coincided with the death of Martin's father, that
became the genesis of lmmortal's brand name. "I started to think about legacy, and what we
leave behind" Martin told me, and he noticed that Wine Advocate's 1 DO-point review of the
2013 Hidden Ridge Impassable Mountain Cabernet included the phrase "This wine is nearly
Immortal." And thus, a brand (or, at least, the idea of one) was born.
Which brings us to the jellyfish ...
Immortal Estate's flagship Cabernet Sauvignon has a jellyfish on the label. Not just any
jellyfish, of course, but the small Turritopsis dohrnii , which possesses the Medusozoa
eq uivalency of near immortality. There's no good way of explaining this, so I'll point you to an
excerpt from www.immortal-jellyfish.com:
Turritopsis dohrnii is now officially known as the only immortal creature. The secret to eternal
life, as it turns out, is not just living a really, really long time. It's all about maturity, or rather, the
lack of it. The iimnortal jellyfish (as it is better known popularly) propagate and then, faced with
the nonnal career path of dying, they opt instead to revert to a sexually immature stage.
Sexual immaturity? Forever? That's not exactly a wine marketer's wet dream, but check out
how the innards of this nigh-undying look to the human eye; namely, almost exactly as if it's
carrying a wee little glass of red wine:
https://www.immortalestate.com/press 2/4
Turritopsis dohrnii (image: amnh.org)
Now, that kind of is a wine marketer's wet dream right there.
One of my first questions to Martin, because this is the kind of guy I am, is why, if the vineyard
site and winemaker are the same, should anyone feel compelled to pay three-to-four times the
Hidden Ridge asking prices for Immortal Estate. Martin's answer was obviously well
considered, and just as obviously wasn't marketing fluff: "Lynn just didn't have the same
resources to elevate the farming practices as we do."
In other words, lmmortal's Randy Nichols has the
funds to farm their unique vineyard site to its fullest
potential. And personally, I think you can already
taste it.
2014 Immortal Estate Cabernet Sauviznon
(Sonoma County, $303)
Available by acquisition only because, well , cult
wine. Densely packed, in terms of palate weight,
complexity or aromas, and intensity of mouthfeel ,
this is immediately identifiable as a Napa Valley
styled classic, but of course in a blind tasting we'd
all get it wrong since it's technically from Sonoma.
Cassis, pencil lead , cocoa, dried herbs, black and
red plums ... the stuff just keeps coming and
coming.
https://www.immortalestate.com/press 3/4
Interestingly, while this is drinkable stuff now, the palate has hints of
reservation. There are nice laces of acidity through the leather of the
tannins and the density of the fruit, but it's the tannin action that has the
most depth to it Deceptively so, however; those tannin chains are nice
and long, so you're getting a silky experience now, and so it's easy to
miss just how much structural scaffolding is built into this puppy. The
tannin Force is, indeed, strong with this one; and it has many, many, many
years of excellent drinking ahead ofit.
Cheers!

Secrets of ... The wine maker • nobhillgazette.com/secrets-of-the-wine-maker/
"Wine, for whatever reason, has this intimidation factor - no one seems to be intimidated by vodka," says Tim Martin, a Napa Valley industry vet. "No one goes into a bar nervous about ordering Grey Goose versus Belvedere. But wine creates this weird intimidation I've never completely understood. There's almost this strange shame or embarrassment from people who think they don 't understand it, which is why I say all the time, we're just glorified farmers, for God's sake. We've built wine into this thing and mystified and glorified it, but it 's really just an agricultural product, like growing tomatoes. "
October 5, 2018
Tim Martin is helping people break through the snobbery and mystery that too often confuse and complicate experience of enjoying fine wine.
Martin believes the unnecessarily snooty attitude that prevails in viticulture only prevents
would-be wine connoisseurs from learning the ropes. As co-founder and partner at Tusk and
Immortal Estates, respectively, Martin makes it his business to make wine accessible,
interesting, and just plain fun. "The truth is, your palate is smarter than you are and smarter
than anything you're going to read," Martin says. "A lot of books will give the basics, but I
believe the best way to start learning is to start drinking. As with any food product in the world,
your palate becomes educated via taste, and as you start trying more, the more questions will
come up, and the more you'll want to learn. Start by drinking, and let that lead to exploration
into whatever you like."
Learning curve.
You don't need to study up, but if you're totally new to whites, reds and everything in between,
Martin says getting to know a few facts can set you up for success. "The first thing you want to
learn about is that there are many varietals - chardonnay, cabernet, pinot, etc.," he says.
"You learn about those and then you learn that varietals in Napa are a little different than those
in Sonoma, which are a little different than those from Mendocino, and you start to ask why.
Then you learn there are different terroirs - a French word for everything that happens in a
regional environment, like the soil type."
The rules are: There are no rules.
"Diversify and don't be intimidated by rules," Martin says. "I've heard all these things like, 'Oh, I
can't have white wine with red meat' - why can't you? Some-one made up these arbitrary
rules. Some are based in ideas like a powerful cab may overpower halibut, which may be true,
but if that's what you like, and you like that contrast, no one has factored that in. I've found so
many interesting pairings that go against the rules. Your palate learns when you test it and
push it, so my rules are to explore and diversify and not get caught up in very structured rules.
Exploration brings creativity, and that's borne out of someone taking a risk."
Fine dining.
When it comes to taking his palate out on the town, Martin has a few go-to spots throughout
the Bay. "I have two favorite restaurants in the city," he says. "One is Quince, which is
obviously amazing and such a fantastic restaurant in terms of having really high-end food and
wine. I love Coqueta on the waterfront. In Napa Valley, one of my favorites is Bouchon - the
meals are always spot-on, and it's delicious French cuisine done right. Don Giovanni is an
other one that's been doing this for 20-something odd years, where I always have a good
experience.
Raise a toast.
As a founder of Tusk Estates and a partner in Immortal Estates, Martin clearly has a stake in
the wine game. But that doesn't mean he's not a fan of other makers. "Obviously, I'm biased,"
he says. "Immortal is my brand, and Tusk is my brand, but Scarecrow is another incredible
brand, there's another winery here called Brand that's really delicious, and a company called
Melka that makes quite a few different, beautiful, well-made wines."
Cougar juice conundrum.
It's safe to say that one varietal in particular has gotten a pretty bad rap among winos:
Chardonnay. "In the U.S., we've placed tiers on wines, like cabs are the best, and that's how
we price them, and that's how people view them, which is part of that snobbery," Martin says.
"'Oh, you only drink chardonnay, or you only drink Riesling ... eventually you'll grow into your
palate.' That's like saying, 'Oh, you only like regular oranges, but everyone loves blood
oranges - you're just not quite ready for those."'
A perfect pick.
With so many factors - origin, year, flavor profile, etc. - choosing a wine can be a bit
overwhelming. But Martin says trusting your gut and adding in a little bit of knowledge can go a
Iona wav. "You want to look for estate fruit from an actual vinevard source. " he savs. "When
you get into wine, you can start to know, 'Oh, that's an Oakville Cab. That's a really good area
that produces high-end Cabs, so even if I've never tried it, I have a better shot with it than say
a Mendocino cab, since that area isn't known for Cabs.' That's not to say it couldn't be made
there, but it's a little bit more of a crap shoot. Knowing the region and varietals that are best in
that region plays a huge role for me when I'm in a restaurant guessing and exploring and trying
something new."
A break from the norm.
Everyone needs a breather now and then. So what does a wine expert drink when vino isn't on
the menu? "I love tequila and mezcal," Martin says.

Khaki-clad, living caricature tech bros subsisting on gruel-like meal replacement fads are
nearly extinct in San Francisco. While startups and tech behemoths continue to coddle tech
workers in post-adolescent utopias, many brogrammers are evolving into cultured, grown-up
consumers, enabling a renaissance for chefs, designers and artisans. Flush with new money
and experimental taste, this cohort is also ravenous for novelty. Here's our cheat sheet to the
new Silicon Valley status signifiers.
SIGNATURE SWEATSHIRT
IN: Grown-up leather and suede jackets, because your Harley's parked outside and coding is
just the day job. If you opt for a scooter instead, Taylor Stitch's refined Apres Hoodie does the
job. Think of it as your comfy college sweatshirt, with lux iterations.
OUT: College sweatshirts, company fleeces, and cheap conference schwag. Even Mark
Zuckerberg retired his hoodie.
CONVERSATION WRIST PIECE
IN: Beaded bracelets with spiritual and psychedelic backstories - whether a token from a
Peruvian ayahuasca shaman, Tibetan monk or local artisan like Mister SFC.
OUT: Neon silicone bracelets bearing a charity you once gave a buck to at a drugstore
checkout desk. (Unless you're going to a rave. Because MOMA is totally in again.)
ENERGY DRINK DU JOUR
IN: Matcha. Encha's ceremonial-grade organic matcha is scrum sprint-certified by its founder Li
Gong, a former enterprise software VP who touts the tea's theanine plus caffeine-based zen
energy boost.
OUT: Gimmicky coffee hacks. Put down the grass-fed butter. Step away from keto coffee.
Wipe your sweaty palms. Now make that appointment to check your cholesterol.
DECADENT DATE NIGHT
IN: Farm-to-table food that tastes as good as it looks from the likes ofSpruce, Chez T J and
Marlowe. As Village Pub's lead server Melody Temkin put it: "Nobody wants the frou-frou stuff
anymore."
OUT: Molecular gastronomy is a culinary science experiment gone wrong that transforms
premium food-grade ingredients into "edible art." The experience costs $1,000 for a tasting
menu of 12 to 14 courses, takes three hours to serve and leaves diners craving a pizza at the
end. Everything sous-vide: stop, please.
SHOE GAME OVER
IN: Rugged boots that walk the line between banker and bandit. You're may be neither and
nowhere in between, but man, will you look cool in Sutro Footwear.
OUT: First-interview-out-of-college dated oxfords, old dirty sneakers and Croes - toss 'em!
But do so mindfully, please.
PRECIOUS CARGO
IN: Rustic, grown-up briefcases and shoulder bags by the likes of WaterField Designs, a local,
timeless staple. And yes, WaterField even has backpacks for the stubbornly scholastic.
OUT: Canvas totes, messenger bags and anything that screams professional package courier.
BOYS' WEEKEND
IN: Sharing stories through the grapevine, biking and bonding with the bros over organic
Cabernet Sauvignon a la Immortal Estate in Napa.
OUT: Players and playboys. Gentleman's club and golf weekend benders haven't been "yuge!"
since the 2000s. Believe me. That's not fake news.
FOLLICLES
IN: The sleek classic side part. Just add a barber, comb and pomade. Cheers to you, old sport.
And watch "The Great Gatsby" while you're at it. Just because everyone should.
OUT: The werewolf look. Not to play Delilah to all of the Samsons out there, but it's time to
snip those beards and manbuns. Unless you're a yogi, ayahuasca shaman or Joaquin
Phoenix.

Introducing Immortal Estate Winery • winetraveler.com/california/introducing-immortal-estate-winery/
Greig Santos-Buch - August 7, 2018
Today, Winetraveler spoke with Immortal Estate Winery, Northern California's newest winery
situated on the mountainous border of Napa and Sonoma producing award winning wines. The
vineyard is an organic evolution of Hidden Ridge Vineyard, a winery that has produced wines
earning a rare 1 OD-point rating from internationally influential wine critic Robert Parker.
Discover Immortal Estate Could you provide some background on who the wine maker is for Immortal Estates? What is
his/her experience?
Timothy Milos c1·eated Hidden Ridge Vineyard in 2004, in collaborntion with Marco
DiGiulio, and has been the sole winemaker since 2008. As a California native, Milos was
pursuing a doctorate in molecular plant pathology at Cornell when he fell in love with the
art of wine making. He redirected his academic caree1·, and began studying Enology and
Viticulture at U.C Davis, and wo1·king in the Napa Valley. Timothy started w01·k at Hidden
Ridge after working with a number of winedes, including Stag's Leap Wine Cellars, Opus
One and Cliff Lede Vineyard. He currently lives with his family in Napa.
What inspired the creation of this brand?
The new Immortal brand was neated as a tribute to all things timeless. We each strive to
place om· lasting mark on the world and to leave a legacy. In wine making, we a1·e hopefully
able to create something beautiful that will outlive those currently working to conceive it.
Our beautiful vineyard was terraced out of the hillside by the previous owner who
unfortunately passed away from Cance1· in 2016, but his work and legacy live on in the
unique land. The immortal jellyfish is the only animal on the planet we know of that can
live forever. It continuously i·eproduces its cell back to a youth state. Our mission at
Immo1·tal is to continue to reproduce our energy into this vineyard with wines that will last
longe1· than the team creating them. We may be gone 50 years from now, but the wines we
create will still be very much alive and drinkable. Our hard wo1·k and legacy will be left
behind in each of the bottles we artfully produce.
What has the transition from Hidden Ridge Vineyards been like?
The transition from Hidden Ridge to Immortal has taken about two years. We didn't want
to fo1·get the past, we actually have integrated that past into om· future, so the transition was
intentionally slow and methodical.
What is the terroir like of the property?
The Immortal Estate is located high in the rngged Mayacamas Mountains whe1·e we farm 50
acres of vines between 900 and 1700 feet in elevation, on mostly terraced slopes of up to a
55% grade. The vineya1·d consists of two adjacent sections: the uppe1· section "hangs" from
:1 nromontorv rifloP linP with F.:1d_ ~onth_ :1nfl WPdPrn PYno .. nrP"- whilP thP lowPr ""ction
sits on a massive ancient slide and has South, East and Northern exposures. Within each
section there is rapidly changing topography, elevation, aspect, and soil. Soils range from
decomposed volcanic ash, to fractured rock, to uplifted ancient seabed. While the vineyard
usually sits above the fog line and expedences warm days, the site is impacted by ocean afr
flow from the Pacific Ocean, mode1·ating the temperature in the mornings and evenings,
prese1·ving fruit and freshness in the wines. It is the diversity and complexity of the physical
characteristics of the vineyard, its mountainside location, and the cooling breezes it receives
that define the unique teIToir of Immortal Estate.
What grapes are being grown and what wine styles produced?
We currently grow Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Ve1·dot on the property. We pafr the
diversity of our property with clonal diversity in the Cabernet to enhance the complexity of
the wines. Our Cabernet Sauvignon is classically styled, rich in complexity, and matures
over time. We a1·e cuITent replanting a small po1·tion of the vineyard where we a1·e adding
Cabernet Franc and Malbec to be used in our Cabernet Sauvignon wines, and a small
amount of Grenache, Mom·vedre and Rolle, to make an estate rose in the future.
Any unique production practices to discuss? What makes the brand unique?
Our wine is made according to neoclassical non-interventionist techniques. Much of the
vineya1·d work is by hand, and we hand harvest. We pick on taste not chemistry. We choose
the grapes accor·ding to a1·eas of ripeness not vineyard blocks, and we keep these picking lots
separate. The fruit is sorted, destemmed and so1·ted again before all going into small tanks.
The fruit sits cold several days until natural fermentation begins and we pump over several
times a day incorporating afr dul'ing fermentation. We allow the new wine to macerate on
the skins after fermentation and drain off when the wine is in balance by taste. Next, we age
the wine in mostly new French Oak ban·els from a number of select forests. The wine is
usually racked three times, over about two years, and we bottle unfined and unfilte1·ed.
Will you be allowing visitors for tastings, tours? If so, in what format I setting? What kind of
experience(s) can they expect?
Right now we are doing private tastings with om· hospitality team that spends a good
amount of time educating people on our process, story and wine.
Any other news or events we should be aware of?
The Immortal Brand officially launched July 10, 2018 with the flagship wine Impassible
Mountain. Our second wine will release this October, and it's called Slope.

TJM MARTIN
CAPTURE: Tell us how Immortal Estates
came about, and the story behind the
name and the jellyfish logo.
TIM MARTIN: When I took my first trip to
see this special vineyard. I saw something
that looked like it was out of Europe. With a
SS-degree slope, it represented something
that was just not done anymore due to envi·
ronmental issues.
We wanted to rebrand the vineyard but had
not made a firm decision. While sitting at
a local restaurant, the sommelier insisted
I try a 190S sherry. Well, it made me stop
and pause realizing I was sipping something
stunning and while everyone who had a
hand in making this sherry was gone, I was
savoring it years later.
It made me think about that mountainside
vineyard and the fact that the founder
who carved it out w ith his bare hands was
gone. However years later we w ill have the
enjoyment of drinking a beautiful cabernet.
The vineyard seemed to take on a spirit of
immortality in my mind. The spirit of the
owner that crafted this vineyard by hand
lives on, and that became the new brand -
Immortality Estate.
Shortly after this experience with the
sherry, I stumbled onto information about
the Immortal Jellyfish, which when it gets
old reproduces itself again.
With my passion to create things that live
beyond myself, such as the hand crafted
w ines that are 100·200 years old, it seemed
the Immortal Jellyfish was the beautiful and
perfect logo for the Impassable Mountain
Reserve.
C: Describe the style of lmmortal's new
release-the Impassable Mountain Reserve.
TM: The 2014 Impassable Mountain style is
a luxurious cabernet w ith all the structure
you want in a cabernet, very well balanced
and appealing. It is a mountain fruit caber·
net that has a beautiful mouth feel but all
the structure you want.
C: Would you classify it as a cult wine?
TM: I guess I would. We are set ting a bar for
a high end Sonoma Cabernet, and are only
making 400-SOO cases. Alt hough Napa has
been doing this for a long time, you do not
think of Sonoma as a high end Cabernet at
$300 a bottle.
C: Where does the technology of wine·
making stop and art begin to take over?
TM: The artistic part for us comes at the
very beginning when we pick the best
f ruit. For t his special vineyard, which pro·
duces the Impassable Mountain Reserve,
everything is done by hand from selection
of vines through the w ine making process
to the packaging. Our w ine decisions are
always to select the best of the best. That is
the difference in a cult wine, versus business
decisions for the books.
C: What was the most difficult part of ere·
ating a wine at a level that received a rare
100-point rating from Robert Parker?
TM: You have to make hard decisions. We
made a hard brand decision to invest into
the vineyard by removing 2S% of t he vine·
yard, and replanted better rootstocks to
grow the vineyard to t he next level.
We wil I not see the fruits of that investment
for seven years.
C: With a limited production, will we see it
on wine lists of restaurants we might know?
TM: We w ill only produce 400 or 500 cases
at most, so other than the winery, Impassable
Mountain w ill be available at select high-end
restaurants.
C: If you were not in the business of making
wine what would you choose to do?
TM: As a kid I grew up playing music, and
thought I wanted to become a rock star or a
music producer. Then I came upon the impor
tance of w inemaking and w inemaking became
my song, so to speak.
C: What is your most memorable wine
moment?
TM: Early on in my career, I was in Bordeaux
w ith friends drinking a Cheval Blanc, one of
the first w ines of France. The wine was so
good, we were not drinking it we were sipping
it. That moment was the turning point for me
to be committed to winemaking.
C: Who is the one person you would like to
share a bottle of wine with?
TM: Steve Jobs. It would be fascinating to talk
w ith him because he was passionate about
what he created, and the products we enjoy
today have lived beyond himself.
Immortal Wines Shows the Wine Industry How to do Sonoma Cabernet <;? auvedaily.com/cuisine/immortal-wines-shows-wine-industry-sonoma-caberneU
by Julia Mathis - May 31, 2018
The Bay Area's thriving wine
industry welcomes an exciting new
addition with Immortal Wines.
Located deep in the Mayacamas
Mountains, far off the beaten path of
the Wine Train and the typical Napa
Valley tourist spots lies the
picturesque and idyllic Hidden Ridge
vineyards. Encompassing 50-planted
acres of lush garden fruit, Hidden Ridge
has been producing wine since the
May 31, 2018
early 90's with moderate success. While their product was good, they lacked the marketing
focus and business acumen to push the business forward among the industry's numerous
competitors.
However, all of that is about to change with the help of Tim Martin. Martin, a businessman
with experience in the wine business, visited Hidden Ridge with his partners a few years ago
and immediately recognized the potential of the property and its unique and varied landscape.
Unlike most Napa Valley vineyards, Hidden Ridge's land can vary significantly in elevation
from one acre to the next, allowing its fruit to receive sun and stress from multiple angles
depending on what part of the slope it's located. That gives the grapes a truly diverse and
diverse range of flavors and it's a feature that is hard to find in a California wine vineyard.
'Farming at this angle isn't allowed anymore. The most you can farm is at a 15-degree angle
and ours is at a 50 degrees. It does not sound like a very big deal but when it comes to wine,
it's a huge deal. What you're getting here is true mountain fruit, but mountain fruit on a slope
with many different flavor profiles. ' Said Martin.
He knew right away how much potential there was for Hidden Ridge, so he worked with their
original winemaker and brought on the best possible team of vineyard managers and
horticulturists to help create wine that was as exceptional and unique as the property it comes
from. He wanted to show that Sonoma, typically known for its Chardonnay and Pinots Nair, can
truly compete in the Cabernet market. It's an effort that has definitely paid off. Impassable
Mountain, Immortal Wine's signature Cabernet, has received rave reviews from critics and
collectors alike. Robert Parker 'the world's most trusted wine authority' has consistently scored
Immortal Estate Vineyard
the wine a 97 out of 100 on his rating scale. It's a wine that exemplifies the complexity of
flavors created by the varied elevations of the Hidden Ridge vineyards.
"We are able to get all these different nuances from the land and the very best of the best goes
into Impassable Mountain. It a true collectors' wine." Said Martin.
Slope, the other Cabernet in lmmortal 's debut collection, is a more accessible option for wine
lovers to enjoy, but still has a well-balanced and remarkable in taste. Both will be available on
Immortal Wine's website in the coming months.
And this is just the beginning for the brand. There are plans to produce a number of other
wines at Hidden Ridge, including an estate-grown Rose, and the potential for developing
additional collections endless.
As excited as Martin is excited about the many business possibilities that Immortal has to
offer, it's clear from his enthusiasm that this is also a passion project. He is genuinely
captivated by the wine and branding industries and is looking forward to make a real
contribution to the market by challenging the wine community's perception of Sonoma Cabs.
''I'm excited because I think the world is ready to know more about Sonoma. People don't think
of Cabernet when they think of Sonoma, but I love a challenge."
CAL IF'ORNIAHOM E+DESIGN
A Designer's Journey From Luxury Brand to Terroir-Driven Wine ( '• l californiahomedesign.com/trending/2018/05/05/designer-s-journey-luxury-brand-terroir-driven-wine
For Tim Martin, a brand designer, building Tusk into a cult
Cabernet was a matter of marketing aspiration in a bottle,
from branding, labeling, packaging, to the luxurious quality
of winemaker Philippe Melka's wine. It's in the moment.
But one night while dining at Tore in Downtown Napa, he
was served a rare 1905 Sherry that sparked a revelation.
While the Sherry winemakers have passed on, their spirit
lives on through the wine. It was about that time that he had thA nnnnrt11nih1 tn ::ir.ni 1irA ::i 11nin1 IA vinAv::irrl nn thA
Mayacamas range, Hidden Ridge, whose ageworthy 2013 Cabernet wines Robert Parker
rated a perfect 100 points, calling it "nearly immortal". And so Immortal Estate was born.
The spectacular vineyard's steep slopes and high elevation site produces deep, rich and concentrated fruit, while the 1,000 foot vertical span adds complexity. The Impassable Mountain Reserve (400 cases) is their small production, icon wine but given the large 50-acre vineyard, Immortal Estate will also produce a second wine called "Slope" to enable a shared journey with their customers. The longevity of the wine inspired Martin to select for its logo the elusive and immortal Turritopsis Dorhnii jellyfish. For more information, check the website.
The Power Of Rebranding: From Hidden Ridge Vineyard to Immortal Estate
F forbes.com/sites/stephanrabimov/2018/04/23/the-power-of-rebranding-from-hidden-ridge-vineyard-to-immortal-estate/
April 23, 2018 Stephan Rabimov , Contributor I write about emerging markets, fashion, arts, and culture.
Opinions expressed by Forbes Contributors are their own.
They say a good quality
product can sell itself.
Hogwash! In an era marked
by crowded marketplaces,
big data, and hyper-dynamic
marketing practices, selling a
product requires deft
strategy. In many cases, the
fine line that separates
success and failure lies upon
a brand's ability to
consistently deliver on
message for ever changing
marketplace. For Tim Martin,
co- founder of Gauge
Branding and owner of
Immortal Estate - previously
Hidden Ridge Vineyard
- his latest passion project is
a testament to the power of
rebranding: reviving a
stagnant vineyard into a
luxury wine brand.
As a child , Martin worked as a prep cook for his Italian grandfather. His penchant for all things
culinary led him to two accomplished decades in restaurant and hospitality management. After
working in Napa Valley for a decade with legendary Robin Lail and her wine project, Lail
Vineyards, in addition to launching his own project, Tusk Estates, Martin launched Gauge
Branding with partner Mark Wiegard. At Gauge, Martin focuses on cultivating brand DNA and
crafting marketing strategies for emerging winemakers, cold-brew coffee makers, and bourbon
distillers. In 2017, he fulfilled his lifelong dream to own a vineyard and thus became the new
owner of Hidden Ridge Vineyard, now known as Immortal Estate.
In its original incarnation, Hidden Ridge Vineyard was a small vineyard with a cult-like following.
Its 2013 Impassable Mountain Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon received a coveted 100-point score
from venerated wine critic Robert Parker, who described it as a "quintessential example of what
perfection is." The brand's only other wine, the 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon 55% Slope, also
received a laudable 97+ score. Yet despite such critical accolades and high remarks, the
vineyard and its compelling wines went largely unrecognized. The problem wasn't the wine, but
rather the branding or lack thereof.
Hidden Ridge Vineyard
To say the vineyard 's unique location is off the beaten path would be an understatement.
Located on 150 acres of land on the Sonoma side of Spring Mountain in the Mayacamas
Mountains, the secluded vineyard runs the ridge between the Napa and Sonoma valleys. West of
St. Helena, the estate's 50 planted acres span the slope of Spring Mountain. What makes the
vineyard unique is its 55-degree slope, a deviation from the county's set 15-degree maximum.
Since the area was originally developed by Lynn Hofacker and Timothy Milos in 1990, the estate
is grandfathered in.
With its extreme slope and mountainous terrain, the area is an anomaly compared to typical
auspicious properties. After initially purchasing the land, Hofacker spent years learning the land
and developing the vineyard. This distinctive terroir provides unique soil and light conditions for
the mountain fruit used to produce the vineyard's acclaimed cabernets. The property's exposure
to the early afternoon breezes from the Russian River compounded with the area's climate keeps
the wines natural acidity and nuanced flavors. Rich, dark, and full-bodied, the wines boast a
complex range of palette notes like cassis, dense cocoa, sweet spice, and truffles. 'These
mountain fruit are incredibly delicate," said Martin. "The wines produced here are unlike anything
else you can find. It really speaks to just how special this location is."
While Hofacker proved to be accomplished in producing remarkable cabernets, his tenuous efforts
in establishing his brand and marketing his creations kept the Hidden Ridge name a little-known
secret. Today, Martin has made it his mission to change that.
Mark Wiegard, Co Owner I Creative Director, with Tim Martin, Co Owner I Brand Director, both of Gauge
Branding.
When reimagining Immortal Estate, Martin had one goal in mind: to create a world class cabernet from Sonoma, which no one has ever seen. "I was intrigued by this idea that we have drawn lines and said, 'Napa does this well, Sonoma does this well ,' but these are arbitrary lines we rlrAw nn ::i m::in l\ilnthAr F::irth rlirln 't rln th::it " !':::iirl l\/l::irtin in ::in intArviAw with N::in::i \/::illAv
Register. "So when I tried this wine for the first time it opened up my brain, I felt like I learned something, because this is a Sonoma cabernet that you don't expect to have these kinds of profiles. I was blown away and sort of accepted this challenge of communicating to the world that Sonoma can make amazing cabs."
For Martin, the new Immortal Estate was launched as an evolution of Hidden Ridge Vineyard. Rather than disregarding the past, Martin aims to honor the original vineyard by building upon its legacy of winemaking and transforming the brand into a prestigious name that will stand the test of time. "I love the fact that every day I get to work on something that I hope will outlive me," said Martin. "Lynn, the founder of the vineyard, he's part of that spirit. Here's a man who crafted this amazing property. He passed away, and yet, this vineyard lives on; it's like the spirit of his is there."
Immortal Impassable
If ever there was a symbol to represent endurance and eternal life, the immortal jellyfish would be it As the only immortal creature on the planet, the jellyfish is able to reset itself and transform back into an adolescent state to essentially start over. With this in mind, Martin made the mysterious creature the focal point of the vineyard 's new branding. "Like the immortal jellyfish on our labels, we want clients' memories with Immortal Estate wines to live forever," said Martin in a press release. "We believe the way to do that is to deliver a truly luxurious wine experience through incomparable wines. We believe something special happens when people come together around good wine. Our goal in everything we're doing is to create these immortal moments for people."

Immortal Estate to Launch First Wines • wineindustryadvisor.com/2018/03/29/immortal-estate-launch-first-wines
By Press Release March 29, 2018
New winery along the Napa and Sonoma border evolved from Hidden Ridge Vineyard, known
for its 100-point rated Cabernet
SAN FRANCISCO- March 29, 2018-
lmmortal Estate, Northern California's newest
winery located on the mountainous border of
Napa and Sonoma, has announced that it will
launch its first wines in 2018. The vineyard is
an organic evolution of Hidden Ridge
Vineyard, a winery that has produced wines
that have earned a rare 100-point rating from
internationally influential wine critic Robert
Parker.
Immortal Estate's distinctive terroir from its
location stretching across fifty planted acres,
of the estate's total 150 acres, of land in the
Mayacamas Mountains enables it to produce
true mountain fruits , creating wines
consistently scored 97 or over by Parker.
West of St. Helena, the vineyard spans the
slope of the mountainside, providing unique
soil and light conditions for the fruits. Wines
produced here are rich, dark, and full-bodied,
with a range of palette notes including cassis,
dense cocoa, sweet spice, and truffles.
"These mountain fruit are incredibly delicate," Said Tim Martin, Owner of Immortal Estate. "The
wines produced here are unlike anything else you can find; it really speaks to just how special
this location is."
Through its transition to Immortal Estate, the vineyard 's aim is to bring the already-high
standard to another level, producing some of the highest quality wines from the region.
Originally developed by Lynn Hofacker and Timothy Milos in 1990, Hidden Ridge earned ~r.r.ol~rlA~ for nrorl11r.inn 1mn~rnllAIArl l,~hArnAt~ owinn thi~ to Hofar.kAr'~ ~r.r.omnli~hmAnt~ in
developing the vineyards on such extreme slopes. Martin, who rose to prominence in Wine
Country after cofounding Tusk Estate, believes this transition is just the beginning of the next
chapter of the vineyard's history.
"Immortal Estate's mission is to create truly immortal wines," said Martin. "Like the immortal
jellyfish on our labels, we want clients' memories with Immortal Estate's wines to live forever.
We believe the way to do that is to deliver a truly luxurious wine experience through
incomparable wines."
Immortal Estate will be continuing the legacy of Hidden Ridge, producing the 100-point rated
"Impassable Mountain Reserve" as well as the "Slope" Cabernet Sauvignons under its own
label. The wines will be available for $303 and $97, respectively, per bottle, set to be released
in early 2018.
Robert Parker said of the 2013 Impassable Mountain: 'This wine is nearly Immortal, drinking
well young, and for those with the patience and wisdom to wait 25-35 years, a legacy wine
from Sonoma."
ABOUT IMMORTAL ESTATE:
Immortal Estate is an organic evolution from the acclaimed Hidden Ridge Vineyard on the
Sonoma side of Spring Mountain in the Mayacamas Mountains. Under new management, the
property was originally developed by the Lynn Hofacker, initially purchasing the land in 1990
and developing the vineyards over many years. Hofacker was very accomplished in
developing vineyards on the extreme slopes of this mountain property but did not dedicate a
similar effort to establishing the brand and marketing the wine.
Wine produced from this vineyard has consistently been rated 90+ by industry aficionados
Wine Spectator, Wine Enthusiast and Wine Advocate (Robert Parker). In 2014, Wine Spectator
rated the 2009 "55% Slope" #32 of the Top 100 Wines of the year. The 2013 Impassable
Mountain achieved a perfect score of 100 points from Robert Parker.

Few people have heard of Spring Mountain's Hidden Ridge Vineyard, even though its 2013
Impassable Mountain Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon - a Sonoma cabernet, mind you -
received the coveted 100 points from Robert Parker.
The problem isn't in the wine; it's in the branding and marketing, which up until now, have been
essentially nonexistent. Now with new, experienced ownership and a complete overhaul of the
brand from Hidden Ridge to its new identity, Immortal Estate, these wine's won't be Sonoma's
best kept secret much longer.
The Hidden Ridge
"If you want to show off to a winemaker friend and really blow their mind, that's where I take
them," said winemaker Timothy Milos, a consultant winemaker who has worked with Hidden
Ridge Vineyard since the first vintage in 2002, was produced. "There's really very few places
like it in California. You take people up there just to show it off; to say, Guess what I get to
work with?'"
Hidden Ridge vineyard is just as it sounds: hidden and on a ridge. About a 25-minute trip from
the base of Spring Mountain, the final mile is like driving deep into a jungle. The nearest winery
is over a mile away.
The 50 planted acres are on a little ridge on the Sonoma side of Spring Mountain, looking over
into a dramatic bowl. The top of the vineyard sits at 1,700 feet, but its most distinctive feature
is its incredible slope. At 55 degrees, it's an anomaly, for the county has since set a 15-degree
maximum. Planted in 1990 by original owner Lynn Hofacket, Hidden Ridge is lucky enough to
be, as they say, grandfathered in.
"If you saw this piece of property, it doesn't look like anywhere that you'd attempt to build a
vineyard ," said Tim Martin, co-owner of Immortal Estate, who is spearheading the
transformation of the Hidden Ridge label. "Lynn studied for about three years what the best of
the best was doing. He was in construction by trade, and figured out how to create this
amazing vineyard -the sloping, the terracing is like nothing I've ever seen."
Hofacket brought Milos in and they started making wines from the vineyard as a side project,
with the intent to eventually sell the property. He didn't put much investment into the business
side of things, and by a stroke of luck, Robert Parker stumbled upon the Hidden Ridge wines at
a Sonoma County Vintners Association tasting. He consistently awarded them high-90s
scores, until most recently granting the Impassable Mountain 100 points. The 2013 Hidden
Ridge Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon 55 percent Slope, the brand's only other wine, received a
commendable 97+.
So what makes Hidden Ridge special?
In addition to the extreme slopes, Milos attributes much of the complexity in Hidden Ridge fruit
to the vineyards' exposure to the Russian River breeze in the early afternoons, resulting in
cooler temperatures sooner than the St. Helena side of the mountain. This, combined with
warm days, preserves the wines natural acidity and diverse fruit flavors.
Moreover, Hidden Ridge fruit is unlike anything else you'll taste on Spring Mountain. While
wines from many AVAs have a specific, identifiable style, Spring Mountain wines can't be so
easily placed.
"Take Pritchard Hill, for instance," said Martin. "I love Pritchard Hill fruit, but it all has a very
similar style, a style I love, but most of Pritchard Hill could be one thing. It could be owned by
one person, it could have one brand, and there are very similar themes. But you line up a
bunch of Spring Mountain wine, and you're going to get all kinds of things; it's all over the
map."
Look up "terroir" in the dictionary, and from Martin's view, you could find Hidden Ridge as the
definition.
"This wine represents this exact place. There isn't a neighbor, there isn't something close. It's
us, in the middle of the jungle, in this one place that truly represents itself," he said.
Destigmatizing Sonoma
Hidden Ridge wine had Martin's interest at first sip, but another point of sale for his
involvement was the fact that these outrageously great wines were Sonoma cabernets.
Martin has 20 years in the Napa Valley wine industry under his belt. His first gig was studying
under Robin Lail and helping to launch Lail Vineyards, and he's since worked on many other
winery launches, in addition to starting his own project, Tusk Estates. But he also has family in
Sonoma (Sebastopol, specifically), and has never felt pressured to pledge his loyalty to one
side over the other.
"I was intrigued by this idea that we have drawn lines and said, 'Napa does this well , Sonoma
does this well ,' but these are arbitrary lines we drew on a map. Mother Earth didn't do that,"
said Martin. "So when I tried this wine for the first time it opened up my brain, I felt like I learned
something, because this is a Sonoma cabernet that you don't expect to have these kind of
profiles. I was blown away and sort of accepted this challenge of communicating to the world
that Sonoma can make amazing cabs."
If you think he's in for an uphill climb, Martin says 'bring it. ' In fact, he's already doing it.
How many Sonoma cabernets, if any, do you know selling for $300? Martin came in and took a
big risk, raising the price of the Impassable Mountain significantly to $303. Fully expecting
some backlash, he offered it to Hidden Ridge's mailing list. Then it sold out immediately w ith
hardly a whisper in protest.
"I thought for sure all these people were going to tell me to take a hike. The fact that it sold out
like that, that's a tribute to the wine, and the fact that the people who had been buying the wine
knew what they had," said Martin.
"For me, this is my next Mt. Everest. I love challenges, and all these years, people are like,
'Well, it's Sonoma.' I used to hear that, and this is the kind of wine that's going to change
people's ideas about appellations in general, and the silliness of it."
Hidden Ridge 2.0
This April, Martin and his team will release the 2014 vintage of Hidden Ridge wines as
Immortal Estate. and Milos seems to think that these wines are even better than the 2013s.
Martin's decision to give the brand a new name stemmed from the fact that it simply wasn't
working from a consumer perspective, even reminding some people of Hidden Ranch, the
salad dressing.
But when Martin got the idea for Immortal, it came from someplace quite unexpected: a 1905
bottle of sherry he had at Tore in Napa.
"It was unreal , like 'stop everything' unreal. Then it hit me, that everyone who made this is
gone. I realized in that moment that there's something about what we're doing here that we
hope will live beyond us," he said. "Most of us in wine, there's something pure about working
with your hands to create something that someone's going to enjoy years later. You're not
around at that moment at Christmas or amongst friends, but you're hopefully creating a
happy moment, and here I was trying something that someone created in 1905."
As the idea evolved, he found a more personal connection to Immortal as well : his father.
"The reason I got into this industry is because my father was a big believer in going for it. He
always pushed me to take chances, to never settle, to be an entrepreneur and find your own
way, and my father is really the reason I started all of this," said Martin.
"My father passed away this year and part of Immortal is that I realized when my father died,
there are people in our lives that have imparted part of their spirit on you, and they live on in a
way through you. My father lives on in a way through me, and I hope to be able to give back to
the world so that when I'm gone, I live on through someone too."
While searching for the right graphic or imagery to represent the new name, Martin happened
upon the perfect subject to grace the new labels: the Immortal Jellyfish.
Yes, it's a real, living thing.
"It's the only animal on the planet that can live forever. When it gets to its adult cycle, it
reproduces itself and basically changes itself back into an adolescent and it starts over. In a
way, it's sort of imparting itself on itself, which goes with our theme," he said.
"I love the fact that every day I get to work on something that I hope will outlive me. Lynn, the
founder of the vineyard, he's part of that spirit. Here's a man who crafted this amazing
property. He passed away, and yet, this vineyard lives on; it's like the spirit of him is there."

The 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon Impassable Mountain Reserve sounds relatively
intimidating, but if you want a quintessential example of what perfection is in
my business, taste this wine! Absolutely remarkable in every sense - the
incredible pure aromatics of blue, red and black fruits, the minerality, the
volcanic, earthy sweetness that emerges in a subtle fashion, the full-bodied
opulence, the staggering finish of more than a minute, and its unreal
concentration certainly make this one of the most compelling and profound
Cabernet Sauvignons I have ever tasted, and the first perfect wine of 2016.
This should be nearly immortal, drinking well young, and for those with the
patience and wisdom to wait 25-35 years, a legacy wine from Sonoma.

The 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon 55% Slope comes from the Sonoma side of the
Mayacamas Mountains. It is 100 % Cabernet Sauvignon from a vineyard
planted at 1,700 feet. This is a remarkable wine and reminiscent of the great
classics from the golden era of the Mayacamas on the Napa side (such as the
1968, 1970, 1973 and 1974) come to mind when tasting this beauty. It is simply
loaded. Dense purple in color, the wine has notes of licorice, creme de cassis,
Asian plum sauce, cedar wood and earth. Full-bodied, opulent and irresistible
already, it is capable (because of the impeccable balance and purity) of aging
20-25 or more years. This is a modern-day classic that could compete with very
finest Cabernet-based wines in the world.

Hiroshima's downtown is a garden of modern architecture interspersed with swaths oflovely green parks. In the center is a single structure, in ruins, capped by a skeleton of curved iron. This is the Atomic Bomb Dome, located at the destruction's epicenter, the sole building that managed to remain standing amid the massive force that flattened everything else for miles in all directions. It is an astonishing memorial to both our capacity for horrifying devastation and our awesome resilience. The dome sits along the side of one of six tidal streams that flow through Hiroshima.
In the murky, green water, thousands - maybe hundreds of thousands - of pale pink disks, a flood of jellyfish parade by as I observe. Juxtaposed with the dome, the endless stream of jellyfish seems to square off nature's power against our own, a battle as old as civilization that continues to play out in the decisions we make today. The milky creatures pulse slowly, slower than my heartbeat, which drops as I watch. The movements of their bells trailing gossamer tentacles are like millions of eyelashes blinking open and closed and open again, giving me a feeling that these alien animals could peer deep into the soul of the sea. I find it impossible to fathom the source of this endless river of life. The jellies continue to flow by for as long as I stand there.
Monster , Goddess
The technical name for the stage of a jellyfish 's life when it swims freely in the seas is medusa, a moniker shared with the ancient Greek mythological monster. Medusa is famous for her horrible face, which turned men to stone, and her wild locks of hissing snakes. It's not hard to see similarities.
But dig deeper into the story of Medusa, and what you find is not at all a monster, but a victim whose story has been misunderstood. Medusa was born to two ancient marine deities and, according to Ovid, was stunningly gorgeous. She served the goddess Athena in her temple. Some say Medusa was a temptress and lured Poseidon in. Others say Poseidon couldn't control himself. As in too many cases, it depends who's telling the story. Since I am: He raped her, right there in Athena's temple.
Because it was ancient Greece, Medusa had little recourse. Athena went into a rage that her temple had been defiled, turned Medusa into a hideous monster, and kicked her out. Medusa - who deserved at least a shoulder to cty on, if not justice in a court - instead banished herself to a remote island, frightened and deformed. Imagine her disgust, shock and horror to find that she was also pregnant with her assailant's offspring. To complete the tragedy, the man always regarded as a hero, Perseus, arrived. Using the tricks of the gods - an

invisibility cloak, winged sandals, and a mirrored shield - he snuck up on Medusa. She never had a chance. He mmdered her.
Like their mythical namesake, jellyfish are also awash in misunderstanding. They have no centralized brain, but they see and feel and react to their environment in complex ways. Their body form looks simple, yet their swimming ability is the most economical in the animal kingdom. We know them in their swimming medusa form, but they live as
much or more of their lives as a mysterious tiny tube called a polyp, planted on the underside of a rock.
They wash ashore in hordes, and they dominate the deepest depths of om planet, supporting entire ecosystems. And still, scientists cannot predict where and when to find
them. To some, jellyfish symbolize the monster - not only in their potentially lethal sting, but also in a more global sense, as a symptom of ecosystem demise. At the same
time, jellyfish are utterly, breathtakingly beautiful.
Perhaps the extraordinaiy creativity of this balance, this smprising ability to exist in the
space between monster and goddess, is why jellyfish resonate so deeply within all of us. Perhaps the stoty of jellyfish is really about om own possibilities.
Aging Reversed
The stoty of the immortal jellyfish starts in 1988. A marine biology student had collected a minuscule bell-shaped medusa with a smattering of thin tentacles and a pinkish chandelier of gonads from shallow water near Genoa on Italy's northwest coast. One Friday, he left the medusa in a bowl of seawater, forgetting to put it back in the refrigerator for the weekend. When he returned Monday, the medusa was missing. But it
hadn 't completely disappeared. The bowl held a polyp.
That was odd. Jellyfish are known to cycle through life in order: A fertilized egg grows into a funy Tic Tac-shaped larva, which metamorphoses into a polyp, which buds into swimming medusas, which produce eggs or sperm and then die (See "TwTitopsis Life Cycle" below). But there hadn't been enough time for the medusa in the bowl of seawater to spmvn, grow into a larva, and end up a polyp over the weekend. Those transformations take weeks. In order for a polyp to end up in the bowl of seawater, the jellyfish must have reverse-aged, like Benjamin Button, morphing backward through its life cycle from medusa to polyp.

Ordinarily, jellyfish are born from eggs and grow into larvae, which morph into polyps before becoming free-swimming medusa. Turr itopsis isn't bound by that life cycle. If you skewer a medusa, it can turn back into a polyp.

It has been known for centuries that jellyfish don't always color inside the lines when it comes to their life cycles. Some species skip the polyp stage, going straight from larvae, called planula, to medusa. Many skip the medusa stage, remaining a polyp through old age. Polyps can bud from other polyps. Medusas can bud from the underbellies of other medusas. Despite all the plasticity in the jellyfish life cycle, scientists h ad believed that there was a limit, that once a medusa reached reproductive age, those sorts of unusual transformations would be impossible. Once an animal became mature enough to produce eggs or sperm, it was thought, the only option was to spawn and die - that is, until the jellyfish left sitting on the counter for the weekend rejuvenated itself.
Unbaking a Pre tze l
Stefano Piraino of the University of Salen to in Italy discovered a colony of this same immortal jellyfish, called Turritopsis, near his lab in Lecce - and as with Ponce de Leon's Fountain of Youth, its exact location remains a bit of a mystery to the general public. But Piraino knows where it is, and it has allowed him to very carefully study the life cycle of the animal. In the lab, Piraino and his collaborators watched the jellyfish morph from polyp to medusa and back to polyp and back to medusa and back to polyp, without ever going through the spawn-and-die part of their lives.
"This process would be hardly more remarkable if a butterfly were able to revert to its caterpillar stage. It must be considered a true metamorphosis, but in the opposite direction to larval metamorphosis," they wrote.
For all intents and purposes, these jellyfish were immortal.
Still, Piraino said he always cautions people that TwTitopsis can be killed and do die, by infection or predation, among other possibilities. "If they were truly immortal, the ocean would be completely full of TwTitopsis, and we don't see that," he says. But at least theoretically, jellyfish can morph forward and backward through their life cycle forever. One scientist in Japan has kept the same turritopsis in culture in his lab for dozens of years.
Recently, we learned that this proclivity for agelessness might not be constrained to just one species of small jellyfish.
Turritopsis is a truly tiny species. Most medusa, shown here, are eaten in the wild, rendering their "immortality" worthless.
Jellyfish larvae typ ically morph into anchored polyps, shown here, before they mature into free·swimming medusa. But some j ellies skip life stages, or just stay a polyp forever.
Stefano Piraino
In 2016, a Chinese graduate student, Jinru He, neglected the medusa of another species, the moon jellyfish. After a couple of days, the medusa sank to the floor of the tank and stopped moving. The animal broke in to pieces, and any normal person would have considered it dead and washed it down the drain. But not this scientist; he kept watching. After a couple of months, the detritus of the medusa began to reconstitute itselflike a phoenix rising from its ashes. Tentacles emerged. A mouth formed. Eventually, perfectly healthy polyps sprang to life from the medusa carcass. Rather than simply die, the j ellyfish had seemingly reversed its life cycle, going from the degraded medusa backward to the polyp stage.
Like animals, individual cells proceed through a life cycle. All types of cells are born as generic stem cells, like a lump of dough with a lot of potential. Specific genes turn on and off inside each stem cell, changing it into a muscle cell, a skin cell, or a nerve cell in the same way a baker molds the dough into a pizza crust, a loaf of b read or a pretzel. You can't turn a pretzel into a pizza any longer. Likewise, a muscle cell can't morph into a nerve cell.
Tapping Into Immortality
Ian Gavan/Getty Images Piraino wanted to understand what happens to the cells inside the jellyfish 's body when it goes through its reverse aging. Was there a limit to the life of a cell for TwTitopsis? Are Tun"itopsis cells ever fully
baked? The answer - incredibly - seems to be no.
discovermagazine.com/2017/dec/the-immortal-jellyfish 3/5
6/3/2019 The Immortal Jellyfish I DiscoverMagazine.com Exhibit A
Normally, the genetic switches that control the transformation of an embryo into a larva or a larva into a polyp are switched on in an order that is irreversible, "but Tun'itopsis cells can hit the rewind button," Piraino ei-.'})lained.
VVhen the TwTitopsis medusa rejuvenates, muscle cells, for example, turn certain genes on or off, essentially unbaking the cells and reverting them to doughlike stem cells. Then those stem cells re-form into new and different cells in the polyp.
The idea that fully cooked cells can become stem cells again has enormous and tantalizing possibilities for medical research. If we could hit the rewind button in our cells, we could open the door to all kinds of treatments for diseases in which cells have gone aw1y, ailments like Parkinson's disease and cancer. "Cancer is cell proliferation without rules," Piraino said. "It is uncontrolled growth. There is no plan for what to do with the new cells ." But in TwTitopsis, the reprogramming of one cell into another kind of cell "is part of a controlled pathway." We just need to learn what those controls are.
Maria Pia Miglietta of Texas A&M University's marine lab is one of Piraino's collaborators on TwTitopsis. In 2009, she discovered that the TwTitopsis living off Japan, Panama, Florida, Spain and Italy were all nearly identical genetically and classified them as the same species. So while the oceans are not filled with the immortal jellyfish , she confirmed that they have spread worldwide.
Turritopsis can act like a shape-shifter. Their stem cells can develop into specialized cells, then move back to a simpler state.
Stefano Piraino Miglietta found that the conduit for the spread was us, through ships' ballast water. Unlike some other species, the immortal jellyfish pose little threat to the ecosystem because it is so small - or to us, because its sting isn't painful. However, the ability to flip back and forth between a medusa and a polyp probably allowed it to withstand the stressful conditions in a boat's hull and likely helped the jellyfish achieve its global range.
Cell Instructions
Miglietta's work on TwTitopsis genes was still in progress when I met with her in Texas, but the plan she's following originated with two
Japanese biologists, Shinya Yamanaka and his student Kazutoshi Takahashi. In the early 2000s, they injected mouse skin cells with between four and seven pieces of protein called transcription factors . Transcription factors attach to DNA and control which genes are flipped on. The Japanese scientists discovered that the presence of just those few proteins had the power to transform skin cells backward - to the lump-of-dough stem-cell stage. And from those stem cells, scientists were able to grow nerve cells, blood cells and heart muscle cells. For this rule-shattering work, Yamanaka received the Nobel Prize in 2012.
Scientists are finding Turritopsis isn't alone in its ability to jump life stages when hurt. Moon jellies, shown here, can, too.

6/3/2019 The Immortal Jellyfish I DiscoverMagazine.com Exhibit A
One major roadblock, Miglietta told me, is that most of the work on transcription factors has been done on cells grown in a culture dish. In the real world, animal cells exist in the ecosystem of bodies. They are in constant conversation with nearby cells, exchanging molecular bits of information that tell the cell how to function, much the same way the information that comes in through our eyes, ears, nose, mouth and skin tells us how to function.
"To really understand how one cell becomes totipotent [a stem cell] and then becomes something else, you need to know how it integrates in an organism," Miglietta said. Yamanaka and a collaborator pointed out that same problem in a recent paper. They said if we really want to understand the fates of cells, we'd be wise to study an organism that already has a mechanism for creating stem cells from mature cells: Tul'l'itopsis.
So that's what Miglietta and Piraino are doing. They have collected medusas and polyps of Turritopsis and are looking at which genes are active in de-aging, paying particular attention to the pieces of protein Yamanaka identified that have the power to turn mature mouse skin cells back into stem cells. Miglietta listed the questions they hope to answer.
"We want to understand the role of the [Yamanaka] genes in TwTitopsis," she said. "Are they there? Are they not? And if there are only two or three genes, what is the role of each of these factors? And can we use TwTitopsis as a model system to understand the behavior of the genes? That's where we are going."
But until the data are cmnched and the experiments are replicated, the secret to immortality remains the mystery it has always been.

Peirano Estate Vineyards 2013 "The Immortal Zin" Old Vine Zinfandel Estate Grown, Lodi
Vineyard Notes:
2013 was a year that started off with a very dry spring, producing early water deficit stress on the vines and was followed by one of
the most mild and cool summer months in Lodi in decades. In fact,
June, July and August were cooler than September, October and November. Because of this, we had exceptionally long hang time for the fruit, giving it the chance to develop layers of flavors. Combine that with the low yield of our 120-year-old Zinfandel
vines, and you can see why we were so excited by the intensity of
the fruit. Plus, with 75 acres of what is the largest single block of head trained, natural rooted Zinfandel in the country, we had the opportunity to truly hand select the "cream" of the crop, making
several passes through the block during the optimal ripeness
window in late October of 2013. This ensured the fruit going in
remained true to form for our flagship wine.
Winemaker Notes:
After hand-picking into half ton bins for the most delicate
transporting of the fruit, the grapes were lightly crushed into the
tank for fermentation. Fermented on the skins to dryness, it was
then pressed and placed in French and American oak barrels, of which 15% was new wood. Aging in this way, it was important to
maintain and uplift all of the fruit components while using the oak
to support each flavor to its fullest. After bottling, it was allowed further aging time to micro-mingle its flavors so each bottle is a
full expression of the monarch of Lodi wines - 'The Immortal' Old
Vine Zinfandel.

Tasting Notes:
The color of this wine is truly Immortal. Its rich dark color goes on and on and on. The deceptively
subtle aromas of this wine combine red current, raspberries, red cherries, with earthy cedar marrying
together to put your olfactory senses into a new dimension. In the mouth, the palate is wrapped in a
mysterious, velvety layered mix of raspberry cordial, sweet mouth filling red fruit, blackberry and red
current, leading to a lengthy rich mouth filling almost breathless finish. This is a wine for great food,
friends and conversation, or an intimate meal for two by a flickering fire. Whichever your pleasure, our "Immortal" Old Vine Zinfandel will make it memorable.

The current fee for filing a declaration under §8 is $125 per class if the filing is made via the Trademark Electron ic Application System ("TEAS") and $225 if the fi ling is made on paper, and the additional fee for filing during the six-month grace period is $100 per class if the filing is made via TEAS and $200 if the filing is made on paper. 37 C.F.R. §2.6.
If the registration meets the requirements of §15 of the Trademark Act, the owner may additionally file an optional Declaration of Incontestability under §15. See 15 U.S.C. §1065. The current fee for fi ling a declaration under §15 is $200 per class if the fil ing is made via TEAS and $300 per class if the fi ling is made on paper. 37 C.F.R. §2.6.

MAILING DATE: Aug 25, 2012 PSEUDO MARK FOR SERIAL NUMBER: 85705858
Attorney Reference Number:
The USPTO may assign pseudo marks, as appropriate, to new applications to assist in searching the USPTO database for conflicting marks. They have no legal significance and will not appear on the registration certificate.
A pseudo mark may be assigned to marks that include words, numbers, compound words, symbols, or acronyms that can have alternative spellings or meanings. For example, if the mark comprises the words "YOU ARE" surrounded by a design of a box, the pseudo mark field in the US PTO database would display the mark as "YOU ARE SQUARE." A mark filed as "URGR8" would receive a pseudo mark of "YOU ARE GREAT."
Response to this notice is not requi red; however, to suggest additions or changes to the pseudo mark assigned to your mark, please e-mail TMDesignCodeComments@USPTO.GOV. You must reference your application serial number within your request . The USPTO will review the proposal and update the record, if appropriate. For questions, please call 1-800-786-9199 to speak to a Customer Service representative.

GOODS/SERVICES BY INTERNATIONAL CLASS
033 - Wine -- FIRST USE DATE: NONE; -- USE IN COMMERCE DATE: NONE
ALL OF THE GOODS/SERVICES IN EACH CLASS ARE LISTED.
Appropriate Specimens for Goods and/or Services: A trademark specimen should be a label, tag, or container for the goods, or a display associated with the goods. See TMEP §§904.03 et seq. A service mark specimen should be an advertisement, sign, brochure, website printout or other image that shows the mark used in the actual sale or advertising of the services.

OFFICE ACTION
STRICT DEADLINE TO RESPOND TO THIS LETTER TO A VOID ABANDONMENT OF APPLICANT'S TRADEMARK APPLICATION, THE US PTO MUST RECEIVE APPLICANT'S COMPLETE RESPONSE TO THIS LETTER WITHIN 6 MONTHS OF THE ISSUE/MAILING DATE BELOW.
ISSUE/MAILING DATE: 9/14/2016
The referenced application has been reviewed by the assigned trademark examining attorney. Applicant must respond timely and completely to the issue(s) below. 15 U.S.C. §1 062(b); 37 C.FR. §§2.62(a), 2.65(a); TMEP §§71 1, 718.03.
Refusal - Likelihood of Confusion with Registered Mark
Registration of the applied-for mark is refused because of a likelihood of confusion with the mark in U.S. Registration No. 4339085. Trademark Act Section 2(d), 15 U.S.C. §1052(d); see TMEP §§1207.01 et seq. See the attached registration.
Trademark Act Section 2(d) bars registration of an applied-for mark that so resembles a registered mark that it is likely a potential consumer would be confused, mistaken, or deceived as to the source of the goods of the applicant and registrant. See 15 U.S.C_ §1052(d)_ A determination of likelihood of confusion under Section 2(d) is made on a case-by case basis and the factors set forth in In re E. 1 du Pont de Nemours & Co., 476 F.2d 1357, 1361 , 177 USPQ 563, 567 (C.C.P.A. 1973) aid in this detennination. Citigroup Inc. v. Capital City Bank Gip., Inc. , 637 F.3d 1344, 1349, 98 USPQ2d 1253 , 1256 (Fed. Cir. 20 11) (citing On-Line Careline, Inc. v. Am. Online, Inc. , 229 F.3d 1080, 1085, 56 USPQ2d 1471 , 1474 (Fed. Cir. 2000)). Not all the du Pont factors, however, are necessarily relevant or of equal weight, and any one of the factors may control in a given case, depending upon the evidence of record. Citigroup Inc. v. Capital City Bank Gip., Inc., 637 F.3d at 1355, 98 USPQ2d at 1260; In re Majestic Distilling Co., 315 F.3d 1311, 13 15, 65 USPQ2d 1201, 1204 (Fed. Cir. 2003); seeinreE.1 du Pont de Nemours & Co., 476 F.2dat 1361-62, 177 USPQ at 567.
In this case, the following factors are the most relevant: similarity of the marks, similarity and nan1re of the goods, and similarity of the trade channels of the goods_ See In re Viterra Inc., 67 1 F.3d 1358, 1361-62, 101 USPQ2d 1905, 1908 (Fed_ Cir. 2012); In re Dakin 's Miniatures Inc., 59 USPQ2d 1593, 1595-96 (TTAB 1999); TMEP §§1207.01 et seq.
The cited mark IMMORTAL SPIRITS & DISTILLING COMPANY (stylized with raven design) is used on distilled spirits. Applicant' s mark IMMORTAL HERO will be used on alcoholic beverages except beer.
Marks are compared in their entireties for similarities in appearance, sound, connotation, and commercial impression. Stone Lion Capital Partners, LP v. Lion Capital LLP, 746 F.3d 1317, 132 1, 110 USPQ2d 1157, 1160 (Fed_ Cir. 2014) (quoting Palm Bay Imps., Inc. v. Veuve Clicquot PonsardiJJ Maison FoJJdee EJJ 1772, 396 F. 3d 1369, 1371 , 73 USPQ2d 1689, 1691 (Fed. Cir. 2005)); TMEP §1207.0 l (b)-(b)(v)_ "Similarity in any one of these elements may be sufficient to find the marks confusingly similar." In re Davia, 110 USPQ2d 1810, 1812 (TT AB 2014) (citing In re 1st USA Realty Prof'Js, Inc., 84 USPQ2d 158 1, 1586 (TTAB 2007)); In re White Swan Ltd., 8 USPQ2d 1534, 1535 (TTAB 1988)); TMEP §1207.0l(b)_
In this case, the first and dominant tenn in both marks is IMMORTAL. Although marks are compared in their entireties, one feature ofa mark may be more significant or dominant in creating a commercial impression. See In re Viterra Inc., 67 1 F.3d 1358, 1362, 101 USPQ2d 1905, 1908 (Fed. Cir. 2012); In re Nat 'J Data Co1p. , 753 F.2d 1056, 1058, 224 USPQ 749, 75 1 (Fed Cir. 1985); TMEP §1207.0l(b)(viii), (c)(ii). Disclaimed matter that is descriptive of or generic for a party's goods is typically less significant or less dominant when comparing marks. See In re Dixie Rests., Inc. , l 05 F.3d 1405, 1407, 41 USPQ2d 153 1, 1533-34 (Fed. Cir. 1997): In re Nat 'I Data Co1p., 753 F.2d at l 060, 224 USPQ at 752; TMEP §1207 .0l(b)(viii), (c)(ii).
The literal portions of the marks are dominated by the shared tenn IMMORTAL. Although marks must be compared in their entireties, the word portion generally may be the dominant and most significant fean1re of a mark because consumers will request the goods using the wording_ See In re ViteJTa Inc., 671 F.3d 1358, 1362, 1366, 101 USPQ2d 1905, 1908, 19 11 (Fed_ Cir. 201 2); In re Davia, 110 USPQ2d 1810, 1813 (TTAB 2014)_ For this reason, greater weight is often given to the word portion of marks when detem1ining whether marks are confusingly similar. Joel Gott Wines, LLC v. Rehoboth Von Gott, Inc., 107 USPQ2d 1424, 1431 (TTAB 2013) (citing In re Dakin 's Miniatures, Inc. , 59 USPQ2d 1593, 1596 (TTAB 1999)); TMEP §1207.0l (c)(ii).
With respect to applicant's and registrant's goods, the question of likelihood of confusion is determined based on the description of the goods stated in the application and registration at issue, not on extrinsic evidence of actual use. See Stone Lion Capital Partners, LP v. Lion Capital LLP, 746 F.3d 13 17, 1323, 110 USPQ2d 11 57, 1162 (Fed. Cir. 2014) (quoting Octocom Sys. Inc. v. Haus. ComputersServs. Inc., 918 F.2d 937, 942, 16 USPQ2d 1783, 1787 (Fed. Cir. 1990)).
In this case, the identifications set forth in the application and registration have no restrictions as to nature, type, channels of trade, or classes of purchasers. Therefore, it is presumed that these goods "travel in the same channels of trade to the same class of purchasers_" In re Viterra Inc., 671 F.3d 1358, 1362, 101 USPQ2d 1905 , 1908 (Fed Cir. 20 12) (quoting Hewlett-Packard Co. v. Packard Press, Inc., 281F.3d1261, 1268, 62 USPQ2d 1001 , 1005 (Fed. Cir. 2002))- Further, both parties ' identifications of goods are extremely broadly worded, and is presumed to encompass all goods of the type described, including those in the other's identification. See In re Jump Designs, LLC, 80 USPQ2d 1370, 1374 (TTAB 2006) (citing In re Elbaum, 211 USPQ639, 640 (TTAB 1981)).
Various alcoholic beverages have been shown to be related goods for purposes of a Trademark Act Section 2(d) analysis_ In re Chatam Int '] Inc., 380 F.3d 1340, 71 USPQ2d 1944 (Fed. Cir. 2004) 01olding GASPAR' S ALE for beer and ale likely to be confused with JOSE GASPAR GOLD for tequila); In re Majestic Distilling Co., 315 F.3d 1311 , 65 USPQ2d 1201 (Fed. Cir. 2003) (holding RED BULL for tequila likely to be confused with RED BULL for malt liquor): In re Saiierbrau Franz Saile1; 23 USPQ2d 17 19 (TTAB 1992) (holding CHRISTOPHER COLUMBUS for beer likely to be confused with CRISTOBAL COLON & design for sweet wine); Somerset Distilling, Inc. v. Speymalt Whiskey Distribs. Ltd. , 14 USPQ2d 1539 (TTAB 1989) (holding JAS. GORDON and design for scotch whiskey likely to be confused with GORDON'S for distilled gin and vodka); Schieffelin & Co. v. Molson Cos., 9 USPQ2d 2069 (TTAB 1989) (holding BRAS D'OR for brandy likely to be confused with BRADOR for beer); Bureau Nat'J Inte1professioJJnel Du Cognac v. Int '] Better Drinks Corp. , 6 USPQ2d 1610 (TTAB 1988)
(holding trademark COLAGNAC for cola flavored liqueur likely to be confused with certification mark COGNAC for brandy).
Registration is refused under Trademark Act Section 2(d) because purchasers are likely to believe marks dominated by the wording IMMORTAL HERO and IMMORTAL SPIRITS, respectively, identify a common source of alcoholic beverages.
The overriding concern is not only to prevent buyer confusion as to the source of the goods, but to protect the registrant from adverse commercial impact due to use of a similar mark by a newcomer. See In re Shell Oil Co., 992 F.2d 1204, 1208, 26 USPQ2d 1687, 1690 (Fed. Cir. 1993). Therefore, any doubt regarding a likelihood of confusion determination is resolved in favor of the registrant. TMEP § 1207.0l(d)(i); see HewlettPackard Co. v. Packard Press, Inc., 281 F.3d 1261, 1265, 62 USPQ2d 1001, 1003 (Fed. Cir. 2002); In re Hyper Shoppes (Ohio}, Inc. , 837 F.2d 463, 464-65, 6 USPQ2d 1025, 1026 (Fed. Cir. 1988)
Although applicant's mark has been refused registration, applicant may respond to the refusal by submitting evidence and arguments in support of registration.

Official USPTO Notice of Pseudo Mark: U.S. Trademark SN: 87075193: IMMORTAL HERO: DockeVReference No. 064357-9107
064357-9107
The USPTO may assign pseudo marks , as appropriate, to new applications to assist in searching the USPTO database for conflicting marks. They have no legal significance and will not appear on the registration certificate.
A PSEUDO MARK may be assigned to marks that include words, numbers, compound words, symbols, or acronyms that can have alternative spellings or meanings. For example, if the mark comprises the words 'YOU ARE' surrounded by a design of a box, the pseudo mark field in the US PTO database would display the mark as 'YOU ARE SQUARE'. A mark fi led as 'URGRS' would receive a pseudo mark of 'YOU ARE GREAT'.
Response to this notice is not required; however, to suggest additions or changes to the pseudo mark assigned to your mark, please e-mail TMOesignCodeComments@USPTO.GOV . You must reference your application serial number within your request. The USPTO will review the proposal and update the record , if appropriate. For questions, please call 1-800-786-9199 to speak to a Customer Service representative.
The USPTO will not send any further response to your e-mail. Check TESS in approximately two weeks to see if the requested changes have been entered. Requests deemed unnecessary or inappropriate will not be entered.
