With between 600 and 1200 indigenous grape varieties, Turkish winemakers have many options to pursue. Currently only 60 varieties are commercially cultivated. Some of the native Turkish varieties include the Yapincak and Papazkarasi grown in Thrace; the Sultaniye of the Aegean coast; the Öküzgözü and Bogazkere (used to make Buzbag) of Eastern Anatolia; the Çalkarasi of the Denizli Province in Western Anatolia, and the Kalecik Karasi, Narince and Emir of Central Anatolia.
