Makaridze Otskhanuri Sapere Red Dry 2023 is a natural Georgian wine made from organically grown Otskhanuri Sapere grapes. Hand-picked and fermented with wild yeast, it is unfiltered and free from artificial additives, preserving the grape’s pure, authentic character.
Otskhanuri Sapere is a native Georgian red grape, its name combining “colorful” (Sapere) and the village of Otskhana in Guria. Wines made from Otskhanuri Sapere are ruby red, with firm tannins, bright acidity, and a strong structure, making them highly age-worthy—often cellaring well for over a decade.
Produced using traditional Georgian methods, Makaridze wines are certified by the Natural Wine Association. Their vineyards, located in Western Imereti near the Kvrila River, thrive in a humid subtropical climate—ideal for expressive, balanced natural wines.

The Makaridze family has been rooted in winemaking for generations in Terjola, a village in Imereti known for its bright, textured wines with vibrant acidity. Originally growing and selling vine cuttings, they began commercial production five generations ago. Today, Gogita and his wife Keto continue the legacy, dry-farming indigenous grapes and crafting wines that reflect the soul of Imereti.
