                         THE ROBERT MONDAVI CORPORATION
                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                             (Dollars in thousands)


NOTE 1 BASIS OF PRESENTATION

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial
statements contain all adjustments (which include only normal recurring
adjustments) necessary to present fairly the Company's financial position at
September 30, 2000, its results of operations for the three month periods ended
September 30, 2000 and 1999 and its cash flows for the three month periods ended
September 30, 2000 and 1999. Certain information and footnote disclosures
normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted from the
accompanying consolidated financial statements. For further information,
reference should be made to the consolidated financial statements and notes
thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K (the 10-K) for the
fiscal year ended June 30, 2000, on file at the Securities and Exchange
Commission. Certain fiscal 2000 balances have been reclassified to conform with
the current year presentation.


NOTE 2 ACQUISITION

On July 13, 2000, the Company acquired 100% of the outstanding shares of
Arrowood Vineyards & Winery (Arrowood). The acquisition has been accounted for
using the purchase method of accounting with the allocation of purchase price to
assets and liabilities acquired made using estimated fair values at the date of
acquisition. The Company also has the option to purchase certain tangible
assets, including vineyards and winery facilities, within the next five years
for $12,000. In addition, the Company entered into a long-term licensing
agreement for use of the Arrowood and Grand Archer brand names that includes an
option to purchase the brand names for approximately $15,000, which will be
adjusted for certain financial performance measures, in 2010.


NOTE 3 INVENTORIES

Inventories consist of the following:

                             ========      ========
</TABLE>

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market and inventory costs are
determined using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. Costs associated with
growing crops are recorded as inventory and are recognized as wine inventory
costs in the year in which the related crop is harvested. Included in inventory
at September 30, 2000, was $14,061 of inventory cost step-up remaining from
applying purchase accounting to the acquisition of Arrowood.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The Company recorded inventory step-up charges associated with business
acquisitions in fiscal 2001 and 2000. Under purchase accounting, the purchase
price is allocated to the assets and liabilities of the acquired company based
on their estimated fair market values at the time of the transaction. When the
inventory acquired is subsequently sold in the normal course of business, costs
of the inventory are charged to cost of goods sold, including the amount of the
inventory step-up (the difference between the original book value of the
inventory and the fair market value of the inventory upon acquisition). The
inventory step-up charges reduce the Company's reported net income. The adjusted
figures discussed throughout this report, which better reflect the results of
the Company's ongoing operations, exclude these inventory step-up charges.

FIRST QUARTER OF FISCAL 2001 COMPARED TO FIRST QUARTER OF FISCAL 2000

NET REVENUES Net revenues increased by 20.3%, reflecting a 22.7% increase in
sales volume that was driven by the Woodbridge and Robert Mondavi Coastal
brands. Net revenues per case decreased by 2.0% to $49.49 per case, reflecting
the shift in sales mix to Woodbridge and Robert Mondavi Coastal, which have
lower net revenues per case.

COST OF GOODS SOLD Cost of goods sold as reported increased by 24.4%. Adjusted
cost of goods sold increased by 21.8%, reflecting increased sales volume that
was partially offset by a shift in sales mix to wines with lower average costs
per case.

GROSS PROFIT As a result of the above factors, the reported gross profit
percentage was 45.7% compared to 47.5% last year. The adjusted gross profit
percentage was 46.8% compared to 47.5% last year.

OPERATING EXPENSES Operating expenses increased by 26.0% and the ratio of
operating expenses to net revenues increased to 29.8% from 28.4% a year ago.
These increases were primarily attributable to increased promotional spending,
start-up costs related to the Golden Vine Winery and To-Kalon projects and the
addition of operating expenses from recent business acquisitions.

INTEREST Interest expense increased by 33.4% due to increased average borrowings
outstanding associated with facility expansion, business acquisitions and the
To-Kalon and Golden Vine Winery projects.



                                       6

EQUITY IN NET INCOME OF JOINT VENTURES Equity in net income of joint ventures as
reported increased by 89.4% to $5.4 million due mainly to improved income from
Opus One during the period. A significant portion of the improvement during the
period related to an earlier Opus One fall release. Adjusted equity in net
income of joint ventures increased by 134.9% to $6.7 million, reflecting the
Opus One improvement and adjusted equity income from the Company's recent
investment in Ornellaia.

PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES The Company's effective tax rate remained unchanged
from the prior year at 38.5%.

NET INCOME AND EARNINGS PER SHARE As a result of the above factors, net income
as reported totaled $9.8 million, or $0.61 per diluted share, compared to $9.3
million, or $0.58 per diluted share, a year ago. Adjusted net income totaled
$11.3 million, or $0.70 per diluted share, compared to $9.3 million, or $0.58
per diluted share, a year ago.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Cash and cash equivalents decreased by $3.0 million during the first three
months of fiscal 2001 as cash used in investing activities exceeded cash
provided by operating and financing activities. Cash provided by operations
totaled $20.0 million, reflecting net income, net of depreciation and
amortization; an increase in inventory required to support anticipated future
growth; and seasonal changes in accounts receivable and accounts payable. Cash
used in investing activities totaled $28.6 million, reflecting the Arrowood
acquisition, vineyard development and facility expansion and renovation. Cash
provided by financing activities totaled $5.6 million, reflecting an increase in
borrowings, net of cash.

On July 13, 2000, the Company acquired 100% of the outstanding shares of
Arrowood Vineyards & Winery. The acquisition was accounted for using the
purchase method of accounting.

The Company maintains master lease facilities that provide the capacity to fund
up to $132.0 million. The combined facilities enable the Company to lease
certain real property (the Property) to be constructed or acquired. At September
30, 2000, $41.7 million of the combined facilities had been utilized.

The Company's short-term credit lines expire in December 2000. The Company
expects to renew the short-term credit lines for at least their current
availability of $91.5 million.

                                     PART II

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

The Company is subject to litigation in the ordinary course of its business. In
the opinion of management, the ultimate outcome of existing litigation will not
have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial condition
or the results of its operations.

                                   THE ROBERT MONDAVI CORPORATION

Dated:  November 14, 2000             By /s/  HENRY J. SALVO, JR.
                                         ------------------------

                                         Chief Financial Officer


                           FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

The above Form 10-Q and other information provided from time to time by the
Company contain historical information as well as forward-looking statements
about the Company, the premium wine industry and general business and economic
conditions. Such forward-looking statements include, for example, projections or
predictions about the Company's future growth, consumer demand for its wines,
including new brands and brand extensions, margin trends, the premium wine grape
market, the premium wine industry and the Company's anticipated future
investment in vineyards and other capital projects. Actual results may differ
materially from these expectations. Among other things, reduced consumer
spending or a change in consumer preferences could reduce demand for the
Company's wines. Similarly, competition from numerous domestic and foreign
vintners could affect the Company's volume and revenue growth outlook, as could
attendance projections at Disney's California Adventure theme park. The price of
grapes, the Company's single largest product cost, is beyond the Company's
control and higher grape costs may put more pressure on the Company's gross
profit margin than is currently forecast. Interest rates and other business and
economic conditions could increase significantly the cost and risks of projected
capital spending. For additional cautionary statements identifying important
factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from such
forward-looking information, please refer to Item 7, "Management's Discussion
and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations," in the Company's
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2000, on file with
the Securities and Exchange Commission. For these and other reasons, no
forward-looking statement by the Company can nor should be taken as a guarantee
of what will happen in the future.
