Kung Fu Girl Riesling is a prominent label within the Charles Smith Wines portfolio, originally established in Washington State, USA. The brand was created by self-taught winemaker Charles Smith, who sought to make high-quality, approachable wines with distinctive, rock-and-roll inspired branding. The label's iconic black-and-white artwork has made it one of the most recognizable Rieslings in the American market.

In 2016, a significant shift in ownership occurred when Constellation Brands acquired the Charles Smith Wines collection, including Kung Fu Girl, for approximately $120 million. This acquisition helped expand the brand's distribution globally. The wine continues to be produced primarily using grapes sourced from the Ancient Lakes AVA in Washington State, maintaining its regional integrity under the umbrella of a global beverage giant headquartered in New York.
