Naked Ojaleshi 2020 by Oda Family Marani is a natural wine made in Samegrelo, Georgia with Ojaleshi grapes.

In 2015, Keto Ninidze and her husband Zaza Gagua decided to leave Tbilisi and to move with their two daughters to the small Megrelian town Martvili, where in the 1930s Zara's great-grandfather had built a traditional wooden house with a terrace on all sides.

This old type of house is called Oda. Since this house and the surrounding land mean a lot to Keto, she decided to give her winery the name Oda Family Winery. Keto is fully aware of her role as a woman in a male-dominated winemaker scene.

She calls her Rosé wine Naked Ojaleshi - and it is not by accident that the label on the bottle shows two naked women: one is entwined with vines, self-determined, stylish, and alluring, the other -- crammed into a barrel-like cage. The caption reads as follows: Terroir vs. Terror - wine can therefore also address important social issues.

We ship every Wednesday. Order by Tuesday 10am.

NATURAL WINES BY ODA FAMILY MARANI

Oda Family Marani is Keto Ninidze and Zaza Gagua, who left Tbilisi in 2015 for Martvili in Samegrelo, western Georgia. The name comes from the traditional wooden oda house with a terrace all around, built in 1933 by Zaza's great-grandfather. Zaza is a geographer, and in 2012 he co-founded Vino Martville, which helped bring winemaking back to Samegrelo. Keto was a journalist and was named Woman Farmer of the Year in 2018.

They replaced a hazelnut orchard with vines and ferment with wild yeasts in qvevri. They make wine from western grapes like Tsolikouri and Ojaleshi, plus Orbeluri Ojaleshi and Dzelshavi, some from the Orbeli vineyard at around 700 metres. The Glass Wall is a rosé of Tsolikouri from qvevri and Ojaleshi from steel, and IRINA is mostly Tsolikouri with some Orbeluri Ojaleshi. Keto uses labels like Naked Ojaleshi to speak about the role of women in wine.
