STELLENBOSCH, South Africa - With a history dating back over three centuries, South Africa's world-renowned wine industry has long been the domain of generations of just a few elite white families.

But the emergence of a crop of new black players such as winemaker and owner of Aslina Wines, Ntsiki Biyela, is changing the makeup of the industry that is among the world's top 10 wine producers.

Biyela, 39, shot to fame in 2004 as South Africa's first black female winemaker, shattering stereotypes about black people's affinity for wine, and she now exports around the world.
