ALBERTA WINES

Alberta Wines is a cooperative venture between cork and some of the Northwest's best wineries. Our goal is to produce affordably priced wines with strong varietal character that are fruit forward and ready to drink. In keeping with the spirit of the community, ten percent of the profits from the sale of all alberta wines are donated to local charities that contribute to making Alberta Street and the neighborhood a better place for everyone.

ABOUT THE ARTWORK

The artwork featured on the label is called Sharecropper and was originally painted in the late 1940's by well-known painter, Elizabeth Caitlitt. A reproduction of this work adorns the outside of the building where cork is located on NE Alberta, a contribution of artwork to help promote the thriving art area that Alberta Street has become. We used a digital photograph of this artwork to create the label.
