PEONY

What this record means

The record shows that the mark “PEONY” is dead and was abandoned by Alioto‑Pier Vineyards, LLC, a California limited liability company, because the applicant failed to respond to an Office action. The abandoned application covered light beverages—specifically non‑alcoholic fruit beverages and fruit juices in class 032—and alcoholic beverages such as wines, sparkling wines, flavored wines, fortified wines, aperitifs, liqueurs and distilled spirits in class 033. Because the application was abandoned, the owner no longer holds any rights to the mark in those goods, and the record does not grant control over every use of the word “PEONY.” The prosecution history shows a standard Office action followed by a failure to respond, leading to abandonment; no Supplemental Register status is involved. The latest status event is the abandonment notice on May 13, 2016, and no enforcement activity is recorded. If you plan to use a similar name for beverages, the closest concern would be the abandoned mark’s coverage of fruit and wine products, but the record indicates no active protection or enforcement.
