Item 7.01.  Regulation FD Disclosure.

On July 25, 2005, Brown-Forman Corporation issued a press release confirming its
agreement  with LVMH Moet  Hennessey  Louis  Vuitton  for early  termination  of
Brown-Forman's  long-term  importing and marketing  agreements for  Glenmorangie
products in the United States, Canada, and certain countries in Europe and Asia,
effective July 29, 2005. LVMH will pay approximately $13.5 million for the early
termination,  the net effect of which will impact favorably  Brown-Forman fiscal
2006  earnings by  approximately  $0.05 per share.  The loss of the revenue from
Glenmorangie  sales is expected to  decrease  fiscal 2007  earnings by $0.01 per
share.

99.1  Press Release, dated July 25, 2005, issued by Brown-Forman Corporation.



                                                                   Exhibit 99.1

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

BROWN-FORMAN AND LVMH REACH ACCORD ON GLENMORANGIE

LOUISVILLE,  KY, July 25, 2005 - Brown-Forman Corporation and LVMH Moet Hennessy
Louis  Vuitton of France  announced  today they have agreed to end the contracts
through  which   Brown-Forman   acts  as  the  United  States  importer  of  the
Glenmorangie  brands and represents those brands in Canada,  Continental Europe,
and certain Asian countries. The contracts will conclude at the end of July.

Brown-Forman  has  distributed  Glenmorangie  brands in the U.S.  since 1992 and
served as marketing agent in Continental  Europe and certain Asian markets since
2000.  At that time  (2000),  Brown-Forman  purchased  slightly  less than three
million Class A shares in Glenmorangie plc for approximately $15 million. In the
fall of 2004, Brown-Forman sold its shares in Glenmorangie plc to LVMH for $95.5
million. Under long-term contracts with Glenmorangie plc, however,  Brown-Forman
continued to have distribution and marketing rights in those markets for several
years to come.

In the new agreement announced today, Brown-Forman has agreed to terminate those
distribution  and  marketing  rights in favor of LVMH,  which  purchased all the
outstanding shares of Glenmorangie plc last year, in exchange for consideration.

"We are proud of the work done by both Brown-Forman and our distributor partners
in building Glenmorangie in the U.S and key global markets into a premier single
malt Scotch brand," said Paul Varga,  president and chief  executive  officer of
Brown-Forman  Beverages.  "However,  we understand  LVMH's desire to consolidate
these excellent brands into their own distribution system," stated Varga.

Christophe  Navarre,  CEO of Moet Hennessy,  said, "Brown Forman has been a very
good  partner for The  Glenmorangie  company  over the years and the brands have
prospered  through  this  association.  Now  that  Glenmorangie  is part of Moet
Hennessy  it is  natural  that the  brands  should  be  distributed  though  our
companies in all the markets where we operate."

Brown-Forman  is a  diversified  producer and marketer of fine quality  consumer
products, including Jack Daniel's, Southern Comfort, Finlandia Vodka, Fetzer and
Bolla Wines,  Korbel California  Champagnes,  Lenox, Dansk, and Gorham tableware
giftware, and Hartmann Luggage.
