Giesen Estate Merlot

Giesen Estate Merlot, crafted by the Giesen winemaking team from New Zealand’s Hawke’s Bay region, draws you in with fragrant plum, warm spice and enticing mocha. Fruit from Bridge Pa brings rich, plummy character, creating a generously flavoured red with an inviting softness that makes it instantly appealing.

The palate is succulent and supple, layering juicy plum and berry flavours over fine-grained tannins. Gentle spice and chocolatey notes add depth, while balanced acidity keeps the fruit lively through a smooth, dry finish. This Giesen Estate Hawke’s Bay Merlot delivers satisfying richness without sacrificing its easy-drinking charm.

Pair it with rosemary-scented roast lamb, beef ragù or a mushroom and thyme pie. These suggested matches complement the wine’s generous fruit, savoury spice and softly rounded texture. Pour a glass alongside a comforting dinner and enjoy an approachable New Zealand Merlot that brings plenty of flavour to the table.
