Alcohol: 13%

Grape(s): Sauvignon Blanc

Localization: Stellenbosch, South Africa

Tasting notes: An elegant Sauvignon Blanc with bright fruit, citrus zest, minerality, beautiful complexity, and depth. The wine was left on the lees for four months to give this wine a unique, lingering, silky finish.

The Domain: Ntsiki grew up in Mahlabathini, a rural village in KwaZulu-Natal, and matriculated from high school in 1996. Having spent a year as a domestic worker, she was awarded a scholarship to study winemaking at Stellenbosch University in 1999.

She graduated in 2003 with a BSc in Agriculture (Viticulture and Oenology) and joined boutique winery Stellekaya as their winemaker the following year.

Ntsiki’s ambition to create her own wines grew following a collaboration with Californian winemaker, Helen Kiplinger, as part of Mika Bulmash’s Wine for the World initiative.

It was over dinner and a glass of wine with her new colleagues in the USA that she shared the story of the inspiration behind her ambition.

Her beloved grandmother was the guiding light in her life and it became obvious that her new brand should be named Aslina in the matriarch’s honor.
