EXPLANATORY NOTE

Constellation Brands, Inc. (the “Company” or “CBI”) is filing this Amendment No. 1 to Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February 28, 2010, originally filed on April 29, 2010 (“2010 Form 10-K”). The sole purpose of this amendment is to provide separate financial statements of Matthew Clark (Holdings) Limited (“Matthew Clark”), an equity method investment, in accordance with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”)’s Rule 3-09 of Regulation S-X. The management of Matthew Clark is solely responsible for the form and content of the Matthew Clark financial statements.

CBI is required to file the Matthew Clark financial statements in its 2010 Form 10-K due to Matthew Clark meeting a certain test of significance under Rule 3-09 of Regulation S-X for CBI’s fiscal year ended February 28, 2009. Since the due date of the Matthew Clark financial statements was after the date the 2010 Form 10-K was filed and the Matthew Clark financial statements were not available on April 29, 2010, CBI is filing the Matthew Clark financial statements in this Amendment No. 1 to Form 10-K.

As required by the rules of the SEC, this amendment sets forth an amended “Item 15. Exhibits and Financial Statement Schedules” in its entirety including a Revised Index to Exhibits incorporated into Item 15, as well as a consent of Matthew Clark’s independent auditor and new certifications of CBI’s chief executive officer and of CBI’s chief financial officer. Except for the amendment described above, this Form 10-K/A does not modify or update in any way the financial position, results of operations, cash flows, or other disclosures in, or exhibits to, the 2010 Form 10-K and does not reflect events occurring after the original filing of the 2010 Form 10-K on April 29, 2010.
