Freshly cut sashimi, light Japanese salad with citrus
Blush Riesling
A stylish new Blush Riesling, inspired by our popular Giesen Estate Riesling.
This inviting Blush Riesling will greet your senses with aromas of luscious red berries, subtle sweet spice and a refreshing twist of citrus.
Take a sip and enjoy a burst of mouth-watering lime and blood orange flavours, with a touch of sweetness that finishes dry and refreshing.
Riesling fruit for this Blush was carefully selected from cool-climate vineyards in New Zealand’s treasured Marlborough and Waipara regions.
Marlborough offers luxurious richness and bright citrus flavours that are highlighted by fabulous floral aromas from the Waipara Riesling fruit.
A dash of Marlborough-grown Syrah gives this wine a touch of sweet berry flavour and its namesake Blush.
A playfully versatile accessory for any gathering – Giesen Estate Blush Riesling will add a touch of style to any moment!

"I have fallen in love with this wine. I enjoy it with nibbles and cheeses. It is smooth and easy to drink. I would highly recommend this (and already have) to my friends and family."
Kathy M, NZ Online Store Customer
"Aromatic, fruity, ripe and refreshing bouquet with aromas of wet stone, flowers and red apple. Flavours of apple, lemon, red flowers, white strawberry and stone on the palate. Plenty of contrasting acidity and delicate mineral layer accentuates the light, crisp and refreshing style. Balanced, well made and ready to enjoy from today and through 2022.
2020 Vintage, Reviewed April 2021."
