WHAT IS THE WINE SERIES?

The NHL Alumni Signature Wine Series™ is the result of a collaboration between the NHL Alumni Association, prestigious alumni, Ironstone Vineyards and Artemis Sports Group. The series boasts 12 different bottles of wine, 6 Chardonnay and 6 Cabernet Sauvignon, all bearing a beautiful gold-relief likeness of some of hockey’s greatest legends. These limited edition wines are sure to attract both the wine enthusiast and the hockey fan alike.

There are three charitable components to the NHL Alumni Signature Wine Series™ wine program. First, a portion of the proceeds from every bottle sold will be donated to the charity of each player’s choice. Second, each of the teams’ Alumni Associations will receive a portion of the proceeds to be further donated to the charities of their choice. Finally, a portion of the proceeds will also benefit the NHL Alumni Association’s “Hockey’s Greatest Family Fund” which helps bring together former players to support charitable causes, assist former players in life after hockey and generally promote the game of hockey.

“The NHL Alumni Association is excited to undertake this new endeavor, promoting and assisting the many wonderful charities that are affiliated with this wine program. We are honored to partner with such a prestigious winery and we look forward to a long and ‘fruitful’ relationship with Ironstone Vineyards. Many thanks to Artemis Sports Group who have been so instrumental in facilitating this program.”
