About Us

At Constellation, who we are as a company is as important as what we do. Our growth has been cultivated with great passion for the art of winemaking, great discipline for managing the business and great responsibility for the people and communities that make our success possible.

Constellation Brands was founded in 1945 by Marvin Sands as a small, family-owned wine company in Canandaigua, New York. Since that time, we have focused on building sustainable growth by staying true to the core values and small business philosophies that are the cornerstone of our inspiring heritage and foundation.
