What this record means
The record shows a live, Principal Register registration for “ELEANOR OF AQUITAINE” owned by Yorkville Cellars, a California corporation, and it covers wine (International Class 033) with a first use date of September 1 1996; a similar name used for wine or closely related alcoholic beverages would raise the most direct concern because the listed goods are narrowly focused on that product category. The record does not give Yorkville Cellars control over every possible use of the words “Eleanor of Aquitaine,” so uses in unrelated fields such as clothing, software or services would fall outside the specific scope shown here. The prosecution history indicates the application proceeded through examination, received a non‑final action in March 2020, and ultimately was registered on the Principal Register on November 24 2020, with the most recent meaningful event being a Section 8 courtesy reminder sent on November 24 2025. No oppositions, cancellations or court actions appear in the supplied history. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan to market wine under a similar name, but the risk drops sharply for dissimilar goods.
