His belt PGI Thrace<\/strong>, established in 1997, is made up of the regional units of Evros, Rodopi and Xanthi, which together define the autonomous wine-growing region of Thrace. A significant percentage of the inhabitants of Thrace are refugees from Eastern Rumelia, as well as other regions, and they brought the tradition of grape growing and wine production to all three regions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thrace is the smallest and least developed wine-growing region of Greece. Its main wine-growing areas are Soufli and the northern part of Evros, Maronia in Rhodope and Avdira in Xanthi. However, it has some very characteristic local varieties, such as the reddish Pamidi and the red Mavroudi Thraces, Karlachan, Boyalamas. Taking into account that PGI wines of Regions must be produced from grapes of PDO or PGI zones within the region and that Thrace had, until recently, only 2 small regional zones (PGI Avdira, PGI Ismaros) it is understandable why the PGI Thrace<\/strong> It is the least represented PGI wine at the regional level and currently, only 2 wineries within the zone produce it. The establishment of the PGI Evros (2010) will likely improve its presence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
