Constellation Brands Inc., the beer, wine and spirits producer and marketer, is seeking a valuation of roughly C$1 billion ($771 million) for the initial public offering of its Canadian wine business later this year, according to people familiar with the matter.

The Victor, New York-based company, whose brands include Corona and Robert Mondavi wines, is working with Goldman Sachs Group Inc., Toronto-Dominion Bank and Bank of Nova Scotia on the offering, said the people, who asked not to be identified because the matter is private.
