| ARGUMENT(S) |
| Concurrently herewith, Applicant is amending the mark from DOMAINE SAINTE-VENTURE to STE. VENTURE. As the examiner noted, the term DOMAINE is
descriptive when used in association with wine. Accordingly, the deletion of this descriptive term from the mark does not constitute a material alteration. Furthermore, as evidenced by the attached
dictionary definition, the term STE. is an abbreviation of the French term SAINTE. Accordingly, the amendment of the term SAINTE to STE. also does not constitute a material alteration. In light of
this, Applicant respectfully requests that the amended application be approved for publication. |
