Big dreams and small trees
Ep. 04
In our host Coly Den Haan’s words: “Ntsiki Biyela is the owner and winemaker of the revolutionary brand, Aslina wines. Ntsiki is famously known as the first black female winemaker in South Africa. This is an incredible feat on its own but hearing her story of how she has gotten to this place, the glass ceilings she has broken, her resilience and drive tocontinually inspire the people following in her footsteps is beyond inspiring, it’s truly magnificent. She has won multiple awards, is involved in ground breaking programs all while continuing to make fantastic wines. Despite all she has come up against and continues to fight for, Ntsiki is an absolute delight to talk to - with a wicked sense of humor, the most vibrant smile on her face and a unique insight into a wine world that isn’t always talked about.”
