FREE SHIPPING ON ORDERS OVER $250

The Giesen Estate Riesling is New Zealand’s most popular Riesling and consistently wins awards each vintage year.

A vivacious Riesling with succulent citrus blossom, alluring lime and sweet mandarin with a delightfully crisp, refreshing off-dry finish.

This Riesling brings together outstanding fruit from two of New Zealand’s preeminent Riesling areas – Marlborough & Waipara.

The fruit selected from Marlborough adds a textural element, richness, citrus flavours and ageability to the wine. Waipara gives us our fabulous floral aromatics.

There is a reason this is New Zealand’s favourite Riesling – try it for yourself.

Winemaking
This Riesling is lighter in alcohol at 10% alc/vol. We use a selection of different yeasts to amplify the regional characteristics of the Marlborough portion of the blend.

Our winemakers taste each parcel daily and stop the ferment when the wine is in balance and the aromas of spice & exotic tropical notes are present.

Stopping the ferment early also leaves behind some natural sugar hence the beautiful off-dry component of the wine.

The Riesling is kept on light lees until bottling.
