DUKE OF BOURBON
35^TH ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATION

With great pleasure and pride, we invite you to join us on Wednesday, May 1, 2002, for the "DUKE OF BOURBON 35th ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATION" as we present an extraordinary program of prestigious guests, fabulous wines and superb cuisine in the Seasons Ballroom of the award-winning Four Seasons Hotel in Los Angeles at Beverly Hills.

The past 35 years have seen the exciting growth of the DUKE OF BOURBON in close conjunction with the development of the world-famous California wine industry. With a view toward this historical connection and to continue the tradition of past special DUKE anniversary events, four of California's finest wineries created exclusive wines in honor of our celebration. Each of these wineries - AU BON CLIMAT, DUCKHORN VINEYARDS, LONG VINEYARDS and LOUIS M. MARTINI WINERY - has played a significant role in the success of the DUKE OF BOURBON and the wonderful world of California wines.

Our celebration will feature the thrilling **DEBUT** of our exceptional Duke's Cuvées presented by the famous winery proprietors. We also will enjoy a lovely sparkling wine from SCHRAMSBERG, which also has played an integral role in the growth of the Duke of Bourbon from the very beginning. Four Seasons Executive Chef Conny Andersson has designed a sumptuous multi-course tasting menu to complement our superlative celebration wines.
