== Wines == Nièvre is also well known for its [[white wine]], [[Pouilly Fumé]].<ref name="pouilly-fume.com">{{cite web|url=https://www.pouilly-fume.com/pouilly.en.html|title=Pouilly-Fumé|website=www.pouilly-fume.com|access-date=5 April 2018}}</ref> The vineyards are scattered around villages including Pouilly-Sur-Loire, which lends its name to the appellation, Tracy sur Loire, Boisgibault, Saint Andelain. The word fumé is French for "smoky", and it is said the name comes from the smoky or flinty quality of these wines.<ref name="pouilly-fume.com"/> The only grape allowed in the Pouilly-Fumé AC is [[Sauvignon blanc]], which produces wines that are generally crisp, tart, and somewhat grassy. There is also a confidential production of red pinot noir wine near La Charité sur Loire.
