                                   Report of Independent Accountants
                                   ----------------------------------

To the Board of Directors of
United Distillers Glenmore, Inc.


We have audited the accompanying  Statement of Assets and Liabilities Related to
the Product Lines Acquired by Canandaigua Wine Company,  Inc. as of September 1,
1995 and the related Statement of Identified Income and Expenses for each of the
three years in the period  ended  December 31, 1994.  These  statements  are the
responsibility   of  United  Distillers   Glenmore,   Inc.'s   management.   Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on the statements based on our audits.

We  conducted  our  audits  in  accordance  with  generally   accepted  auditing
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable  assurance  about  whether  the  statements  are  free  of  material
misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the  amounts  and  disclosures  in the  statements.  An audit  also  includes
assessing the  accounting  principles  used and  significant  estimates  made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the statements. We
believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

The  accompanying  statements  have been  prepared  to  present  the  assets and
liabilities  and  identified  income and expenses of the product lines of United
Distillers  Glenmore,  Inc.  acquired by Canandaigua  Wine Company,  Inc. on the
basis  of  preparation  described  in Note 1,  and are not  intended  to be a
complete  presentation  of  assets  and  liabilities  or  operations  of  United
Distillers Glenmore, Inc.

In our opinion,  the statements  audited by us present  fairly,  in all material
respects,  the assets and  liabilities  related to the  product  lines of United
Distillers Glenmore, Inc. at September 1, 1995 that were acquired by Canandaigua
Wine  Company,  Inc. and the results of their  operations  for each of the three
years in the period  ended  December  31,  1994,  on the basis  described in the
preceding  paragraph  and  in  conformity  with  generally  accepted  accounting
principles.

UNITED DISTILLERS GLENMORE, INC. AND AFFILIATES

Notes to Financial Statements of the Product Lines Acquired by
Canandaigua Wine Company, Inc. (in thousands)
- ---------------------------------------------------------------

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION:

The  accompanying   statements  present  the  assets  and  liabilities  and  the
identified  income  and  expenses  of the  product  lines of  United  Distillers
Glenmore,  Inc.  ("UDG"),  a wholly owned subsidiary of United  Distillers North
America, Inc. ("UDNA"), and its affiliates acquired by Canandaigua Wine Company,
Inc. (the "Product  Lines  Acquired")  pursuant to an asset  purchase  agreement
dated September 1, 1995. In accordance  with this  agreement,  the cash purchase
price was approximately $141 million.

The assets and  liabilities  of the Product  Lines  Acquired as presented in the
accompanying  Statement of Assets and  Liabilities  Related to the Product Lines
Acquired by Canandaigua  Wine Company,  Inc. as of September 1, 1995 include UDG
and  its  affiliates'  historical  book  balances  of  raw  materials  and  bulk
inventory, supplies, work-in-process and finished goods inventory of the Product
Lines Acquired,  and certain property,  plant and equipment and other assets and
liabilities associated with the Product Lines Acquired. These product lines have
never been operated as a separate  business entity and have no legal  existence,
but rather have been an  integral  part of the  spirits  business of UDG,  whose
operations primarily relate to the United States.

These  statements  include the net sales,  including tax and duty, tax and duty,
cost of goods sold, grants, advertising,  merchandising and promotions, brokers'
commissions  and  royalty  income,  that  substantially  relate  directly to the
Product Lines Acquired. All other expense items are allocated based on estimates
and  assumptions  as if the  Product  Lines  Acquired  had  been  operated  on a
stand-alone basis during the periods presented.

The basis for presenting the allocated expense items is as follows:

(a)  Selling,  general and administrative  expenses are allocated based upon (i)
     for UDG overhead (including other operating and nonoperating income/costs),
     the  proportion of net sales  (including tax and duty) of the Product Lines
     Acquired  to total UDG net  sales;  and (ii) for UDNA  overhead  (including
     other operating and nonoperating income/costs), the proportion of net sales
     (including  tax and duty) of the  Product  Lines  Acquired  to UDNA and its
     affiliated spirits companies' net sales;

(b)  Amortization  of goodwill is  allocated  based upon the  proportion  of UDG
     goodwill  attributable to the Product Lines Acquired to total UDG goodwill,
     using a 40-year  amortization  period;

(c)  Interest  expense is allocated by determining  the percentage relationship
     between the total assets of the Product Lines Acquired and the total assets
     of UDNA and its affiliated spirits  companies,  and applying the percentage
     to actual  interest  expense of UDNA to  determine  the  allocation  to the
     Product Lines Acquired.  Those percentages are 7.1% for 1994, 7.5% for 1993
     and 6.5% for 1992.

     Management  believes the  above   allocations  to  be  reasonable  in  the
     circumstances;  however,  there can be no assurances that such  allocations
     will be indicative  of future  results of operations or what the results of
     operations  of the  Product  Lines  Acquired  would have been had it been a
     separate, stand-alone entity during the periods covered.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

      (a) Revenue  recognition. Sales  revenues  are  recognized  at the date of
          shipment to customers.

      (b) Inventories.  Inventories  are  stated at the lower of cost or market.
          Raw   materials   and   bulk   inventories,   supplies   and   certain
          work-in-process  and finished  goods are valued at last-in,  first-out
          (LIFO) cost. Work-in-process and finished goods inventories not valued
          at LIFO are valued at first-in, first-out (FIFO) cost (see Note 3).

          The LIFO inventory reserve has been allocated by determining, for each
          relevant LIFO pool, the percentage  relationship of LIFO inventory for
          the Product Lines Acquired to total UDG LIFO  inventory,  and applying
          the percentage to each relevant LIFO inventory reserve.

     (c)  Property, plant and equipment
 
          Property,  plant and  equipment  is  stated  at cost less  accumulated
          depreciation  computed  using  the  straight-line  method  over  their
          estimated useful lives within the following ranges:

          Buildings and building improvements      20 - 45 years
          Manufacturing equipment                   4 - 20 years

      (d) Taxes.   The  results  of  UDG's   operations   are  included  in  the
          consolidated  income tax return of its ultimate  United  States parent
          company,  Guinness  America  Holdings,  Inc. The  provision for income
          taxes has been provided  assuming the  activities of the Product Lines
          Acquired were a separate tax paying entity.

          United States excise taxes  constitute a lien on in-bond  inventories.
          Since these taxes are not payable until inventories are withdrawn from
          bond,  excise  taxes  have  not  been  accrued  with  respect  to such
          inventories, in accordance with industry practice.
 
      (e) Advertising, merchandising and promotions

          Costs relating to advertising,  merchandising and promotions  programs
          are expensed in the period the related program is run.

                                                                          9,065
  Lower of first-in, first-out (FIFO) cost or market:

                                                                        --------

                                                                       $ 13,070
                                                                        --------

                                                             -------
                                                       $      23,994

     1992 to income before income taxes as follows:

UNITED DISTILLERS GLENMORE, INC. AND AFFILIATES

NOTES TO STATEMENTS OF INCOME AND EXPENSES OF THE PRODUCT LINES ACQUIRED
BY CANANDAIGUA WINE COMPANY, INC. FOR THE EIGHT MONTHS ENDED AUGUST 31,
1995 AND PRIOR YEAR


BASIS OF PRESENTATION
- ---------------------

The accompanying  statements  present the identified  income and expenses of the
product  lines of United  Distillers  Glenmore,  Inc.  ("UDG"),  a wholly  owned
subsidiary of United Distillers North America, Inc. ("UDNA"), and its affiliates
acquired by  Canandaigua  Wine  Company,  Inc. (the  "Product  Lines  Acquired")
pursuant to an asset purchase  agreement dated September 1, 1995.  These product
lines have never been operated as a separate business entity and have no legal
existence, but rather have been an integral part of the spirits business of UDG,
whose operations primarily relate to the United States.

These  statements  include the net sales,  including tax and duty, tax and duty,
cost of goods sold, grants, advertising,  merchandising and promotions, brokers'
commissions  and  royalty  income,  that  substantially  relate  directly to the
Product Lines Acquired. All other expense items are allocated based on estimates
and  assumptions  as if the  Product  Lines  Acquired  had  been  operated  on a
stand-alone basis during the periods presented.

Grants,  Advertising,  Merchandising and Promotions and Brokers' Commissions for
the eight months to August 31, 1995 represent  expenses incurred for the period.
The equivalent amounts for the prior year represent two thirds of the
relevant amounts for the calendar year ended December 31, 1994.

The  allocated  expense  items for the prior  year  represent  two thirds of the
relevant amounts for the calendar year ended December 31, 1994.

The basis for presenting the allocated expense items is as follows:

        (a) Selling,  general and  administrative  expenses are allocated  based
        upon (i) for UDG overhead  (including  other operating and non operating
        income/costs),  the proportion of net sales  (including tax and duty) of
        the  Product  Lines  Acquired  to total  UDG net sales and (ii) for UDNA
        overhead (including other operating and non operating income/costs), the
        proportion  of net sales  (including  tax and duty) of the Product Lines
        Acquired  to UDNA  and its  affiliated  spirits  companies'  net  sales,
        including  for purposes of this  allocation  only,  the net sales of the
        Schieffelin Partner in the Schieffelin & Somerset joint venture;

        (b)  Amortization  of goodwill is allocated based upon the proportion of
        UDG goodwill  attributable  to the Product  Lines  Acquired to total UDG
        goodwill, using a 40-year amortization period;


<PAGE>


        (c)  Interest   expense  is  allocated  by  determining  the  percentage
        relationship  between the total assets of the Product Lines Acquired and
        the  total  assets of UDNA and its  affiliated  spirits  companies,  and
        applying  the  percentage  to actual  interest  expense  of UDNA and its
        affiliated  spirits companies to determine the allocation to the Product
        Lines Acquired;

        (d) Income  taxes are  allocated  to the Product  Lines  Acquired on the
        separate return method.

Management believes the above allocations to be reasonable in the circumstances;
however,  there can be no assurances that such allocations will be indicative of
future  results of  operations  or what the results of operations of the Product
Lines  Acquired  would have been had they been a  separate,  stand-alone  entity
during the period covered.

                     PRO FORMA CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL DATA
                                  (UNAUDITED)

        The following pro forma financial data of the Company  consists of (i) a
pro forma condensed  consolidated  balance sheet  (unaudited) as of May 31, 1995
(the "Pro Forma  Balance  Sheet"),  (ii) a 1994 fiscal year pro forma  condensed
consolidated  statement of income  (unaudited) (the "1994 Pro Forma Statement of
Income") and (iii) a 1995 nine month pro forma condensed  consolidated statement
of income  (unaudited)  (the "1995 Nine Month Pro Forma  Statement  of  Income")
(collectively, the "Pro Forma Statements").

        The Pro Forma  Balance  Sheet  reflects the  combination  of the balance
sheet  of the  Company  as of May 31,  1995  and the  statement  of  assets  and
liabilities as of September 1, 1995 related to the product lines acquired by the
Company from United Distillers  Glenmore,  Inc. (the "United Distillers Glenmore
Product  Lines"),  as adjusted for the  acquisition  on September 1, 1995 by the
Company of certain assets and liabilities of United Distillers  Glenmore,  Inc.,
including  those related to the United  Distillers  Glenmore  Product Lines (the
"United  Distillers  Glenmore  Acquisition").  The Pro  Forma  Balance  Sheet is
presented as if the United Distillers  Glenmore  Acquisition were consummated on
May 31, 1995.

        The 1994 Pro Forma  Statement of Income  reflects the combination of (i)
the income statement of the Company for the year ended August 31, 1994, (ii) the
income statement of Vintners  International  Company,  Inc. ("Vintners") for the
six weeks ended October 15, 1993,  (iii) the statement of identified  income and
expenses for the product  lines  acquired by the Company from Heublein Inc. (the
"Almaden/Inglenook  Product  Lines") for the eleven  months ended August 5, 1994
and  (iv) the  statement  of  identified  income  and  expenses  for the  United
Distillers  Glenmore  Product  Lines for the year  ended  August  31,  1994,  as
adjusted  for (i) the  acquisition  by the Company of  substantially  all of the
assets and  liabilities  of  Vintners  as of  October  15,  1993 (the  "Vintners
Acquisition"),  (ii) the  acquisition  by the  Company  of  certain  assets  and
liabilities from Heublein Inc. as of August 5, 1994,  including those related to
the Almaden/Inglenook  Product Lines (the  "Almaden/Inglenook  Acquisition") and
(iii) the United Distillers Glenmore  Acquisition.  The 1994 Pro Forma Statement
of Income is presented as if such  transactions were consummated on September 1,
1993.

        The  1995  Nine  Month  Pro  Forma  Statement  of  Income  reflects  the
combination of (i) the income statement of the Company and (ii) the statement of
identified income and expenses for the United Distillers Glenmore Product Lines,
both  for the nine  months  ended  May 31,  1995,  as  adjusted  for the  United
Distillers  Glenmore  Acquisition.  The 1995 Nine Month Pro Forma  Statement  of
Income is  presented  as if the  United  Distillers  Glenmore  Acquisition  were
consummated on September 1, 1994.

        The Pro  Forma  Statements  should be read in  conjunction  with (i) the
separate  historical  financial  statements  of  the  Company,   Vintners,   the
Almaden/Inglenook  Product  Lines and the  United  Distillers  Glenmore  Product
Lines, (ii) the related notes and (iii) "Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial  Condition  and the  Results  of  Operations"  incorporated  herein by
reference to the Registrant's  Registration  Statement on Form S-3 (Registration
No.  33-55997).  The Pro Forma  Statements  are based upon  currently  available
information  and  upon  certain   assumptions  that  the  Company  believes  are
reasonable under the  circumstances.  The Pro Forma Statements do not purport to
represent what the Company's  financial  position or results of operations would
actually have been if the  aforementioned  transactions  in fact had occurred on
such  date  or at the  beginning  of the  period  indicated  or to  project  the
Company's  financial position or the results of operations at any future date or
for any future period.

(a)  Reflects  the  estimated  purchase  accounting  adjustments  for the United
Distillers Glenmore Acquisition based upon a preliminary appraisal of the assets
and liabilities  assumed.  For purchase  accounting,  United Distillers Glenmore
Product Lines assets have been  recorded at estimated  fair market value subject
to adjustment based upon the results of an independent  appraisal.  The purchase
price and  estimated  fair market value are based,  in part, on the value of net
assets,  as defined in the asset purchase  agreement,  on September 1, 1995. The
estimated  amounts  recorded  for assets and  liabilities  acquired  from United
Distillers  Glenmore,  Inc. are not expected to differ materially from the final
assigned  values.  Purchase  accounting  adjustments  were  recorded to increase
inventory by $3,000,  to increase  property,  plant and equipment by $6,155,  to
record the excess of purchase cost over fair market value of assets  acquired of
$65,464,  and to record $31,890  reflecting the value of the  tradenames.  These
adjustments  are required to record these assets at their  estimated fair market
values. The $600 reflects an assumed liability for an adverse lease commitment.
         The estimated  purchase price is $144,962 which consists of (i) $37,185
for the net book value of the United  Distillers  Glenmore Product Lines assets;
(ii)  $103,609  for  intangible  assets and  premium  over book value of the net
assets  acquired;  (iii)  liabilities  assumed of $855; (iv) direct  acquisition
costs of $2,300;  and (v) financing costs of $1,013. The excess of purchase cost
over fair market value of the assets acquired and  liabilities  assumed from the
United Distillers Glenmore Product Lines is as follows:

Purchase Cost:
   Book value of Product Line assets                                $ 37,440

(a) Reflects the adjusted depreciation expense related to the acquired property,
plant and equipment of Vintners on the assumption that the Vintners  Acquisition
had taken place on September 1, 1993.  These assets have been  restated at their
estimated fair market values and  depreciated  using the Company's  depreciation
methods over the remaining  useful lives of the assets.  The Company  utilizes a
convention  whereby one-half of the annual  depreciation is recorded in the year
of  acquisition  and  one-half  in the  year of  disposition.  The  decrease  in
depreciation  expense of $742 as  compared  to that  recorded  by  Vintners  was
allocated,  as  indicated,  to cost of product  sold and  selling,  general  and
administrative expenses. Giving effect to a full year's depreciation expense for
the assets acquired in the Vintners Acquisition would reduce pretax income by an
additional $1,784.

(b) Reflects  increased lease expense related to the  Hammondsport  lease on the
assumption that the lease was entered into on September 1, 1993.

(c) Historic Vintners selling,  general and administrative expenses and interest
income reflect the reclassification of certain items to conform to the Company's

using the straight-line method.

(e) Reflects  amortization  expense of deferred  financing  costs of $9 over the

"Subordinated Bank Loan") (120 months) using the effective interest method.

(f) Reflects the  elimination of compensation  and benefits  attributable to the
net reduction of certain  management and sales  personnel in connection with the
Vintners Acquisition.

(g) Reflects certain additional revolving loans (the "Revolving Loans"), under a
certain  Amendment  No.  1  dated  as of  October  15,  1993  of  Amendment  and
Restatement  of  Credit  Agreement  dated as of June  29,  1993,  to  repay  the
Subordinated  Bank Loan.  Also,  reflects the elimination of interest expense of
$1,803 on the Subordinated Bank Loan, the addition of interest expense of $1,422
on the public offering and sale of the Company's  Senior  Subordinated  Notes on
December 27, 1993 (the "Senior  Subordinated  Notes") utilizing an interest rate
of 8.75% per annum,  the addition of interest  expense of $68 on the  additional
Revolving  Loans  utilizing  an  assumed  interest  rate  of 5% per  annum,  and
amortization  expense of direct  financing  costs of $137  related to the Senior

amortization of debt financing costs of $14 and reflects an increase in interest
expense  of  $1,783  relating  to the debt  incurred  to  finance  the  Vintners
Acquisition.  Interest  expense was  calculated  using an assumed  interest rate
which started at 9.25% per annum and increased over the 9-month period to 11.25%
per annum for the Subordinated  Bank Loan and an assumed interest rate of 5% per
annum for the Revolving Loans.

(i) Reflects the tax benefit  assuming that the pro forma income before taxes is

plant and equipment of  Almaden/Inglenook  Product Lines on the assumption  that
the  Almaden/Inglenook  Acquisition had taken place on September 1, 1993.  These

using the Company's  depreciation methods over the remaining useful lives of the
assets.  The  Company  utilizes  a  convention  whereby  one-half  of the annual
depreciation  is recorded in the year of acquisition and one-half in the year of
disposition.  The decrease in deprecation  expense of $3,264 as compared to that
recorded on a historical basis was allocated,  as indicated,  to cost of product
sold and selling, general and administrative  expenses.  Giving effect to a full
year's  depreciation  expense for the assets  acquired in the  Almaden/Inglenook
Acquisition would reduce pretax income by an additional $1,328.

net reduction of certain  management and sales  personnel in connection with the
Almaden/Inglenook Acquisition.

(m) Reflects the elimination of  postretirement  benefits expense of $397 as the
liability  to  existing   retirees  was  not  assumed  by  the  Company  and  no
postretirement  benefits  will be offered to the new  Almaden/Inglenook  Product
Lines  employees  hired  by the  Company  at the  date of the  Almaden/Inglenook
Acquisition.

(n)  Reflects  the  elimination  of $476 of repair  and  maintenance  expense to

(a) Reflects the adjusted depreciation expense related to the acquired property,
plant  and  equipment  of  United  Distillers  Glenmore  Product  Lines  on  the
assumption that the United  Distillers  Glenmore  Acquisition had taken place on
September  1, 1994.  These  assets have been  restated at their  estimated  fair
market values and depreciated using the Company's  depreciation methods over the
remaining useful lives of the assets.  The Company utilizes a convention whereby
one-half of the annual  depreciation  is recorded in the year of acquisition and
one-half in the year of  disposition.  The decrease in  depreciation  expense of
$459,  as compared to that recorded on a historical  basis,  was  allocated,  as
indicated,  to cost of product  sold and  selling,  general  and  administrative
expenses.  Giving  effect to a full nine  months'  depreciation  expense for the
assets  acquired in the United  Distillers  Glenmore  Acquisition  would  reduce
pretax income by an additional $663.

(b) Reflects the adjusted  amortization  expense for  intangible  assets.  These
assets have been  recorded at their  estimated  fair market value and  amortized
using the Company's  amortization methods over their estimated useful lives. The
increase in amortization  expense of $779 as compared to that recorded by United
Distillers Glenmore Product Lines was allocated to goodwill and trade names.

(c) Reflects  amortization  expense of deferred financing costs of $127 over the
term of the Term Loan (72 months).

(d) Reflects the elimination of  postretirement  benefits expense of $230 as the
liability  to  existing   retirees  was  not  assumed  by  the  Company  and  no
postretirement  benefits will be offered to the new United  Distillers  Glenmore
Product  Lines  employees  hired  by the  Company  at  the  date  of the  United
Distillers Glenmore Acquisition.

(e)  Reflects  the  elimination  of United  Distillers  Glenmore  Product  Lines
allocated  interest  expense of $1,190 and  reflects  an  increase  in  interest
expense of $5,713 relating to the debt incurred to finance the United Distillers
Glenmore Acquisition.  Interest expense was calculated using an assumed interest
rate of 5.2% per annum on the Term Loan portion of the Amended Credit Agreement.

(f) Reflects the reduction in tax expense  calculated  using a combined  federal
and state income tax rate of 38.5%.
