Aslina Skin Contact Chenin Blanc, Stellenbosch 2022
Ntsiki Biyela had been wanting to try her hand at this increasingly popular technique for some time and this year believes she’s got it right. It brings a little more structure to the wine, with a touch of citrus pith and crunchy apricot fruit.

Aslina Wines
KwaZulu-Natal born Ntsiki Biyela won a scholarship to study oenology and viticulture at Stellenbosch University then made her name at Stellekaya in Stellenbosch, picking up several awards along the way. She bottled her first Aslina wine in 2013, and the range now includes a cabernet, a Bordeaux-style blend, Umsasane, a chardonnay and a sauvignon blanc. Aslina is a tribute to her late grandmother who inspired and supported her. Fruit is sourced to the desired style and the wines are made at Koelenhof in Stellenbosch. When she is not making and promoting her own wines both at home and abroad, she is an active industry spokeswoman, and sits on the Board of the Pinotage Youth Development Academy which provides education and training to underprivileged young people to prepare them for work in the wine and hospitality industries.
