In the game of 'follow the leader', the current fashion for Thracian wineries is to have a  blanc de noir  Papazkarası. This is one of the few native Thracian grapes that wineries actively work with. A black grape, Papazkarası can produce really beautiful red wines redolent with dark fruits, black olives, purple flowers, spice, and sometimes even a hint of salinity. Very few wineries make red wines (or make  good  red wines) with this grape. In fact, only two spring to mind. And yet, at least four wineries make one, sometimes two, blanc de noir. At least once of which doesn't even have it on their books as a red wine at all.
