Wines I find are consistently good and don't break the bank (prices are for SK, Alberta is cheaper):
Layer Cake (Malbec or Cab Sav) (~$30)
Cupcake (Red Velvet) (~$18)
Escudo Rojo (Chilean Red Blend) (definitely one of my favourites I have drank year after year, had a Chilean feller tell me it is the best Chilean wine he has found in Canada, I've been hooked ever since ) (~$20)
You should be able to get a bottle of all 3 for under $60 in Alberta. This is of course all related to my taste preference, I never claim to know anything about wine but I know what I like!
I don't drink white, but my GF loves Rieslings and Kung Fu Girl (~$30) is hands down her favourite out of any bottle I have ever bought her. I know most Alberta stores carry it as I always grab a few bottles on my way through.
