Pouilly-Fumé is about half the size of neighboring Sancerre just across the river but has nowhere near the market share in the US and might be practically invisible were it not for Didier Dagueneau's cult bottlings. While it shares the Kimmeridgian limestone of Sancerre, its soils also contain fragments of flint, which are presumably responsible for Pouilly-Fumé's characteristic goût de pierre à fusil, or gunflint taste.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003eDomaine Eric Louis traces its roots back to 1860, when Eric’s great-great-grandmother Pauline sold her wines at the local markets. Eric, a fourth generation grape grower, is a serious farmer in the commune of Thauvenay, which is within the Sancerre AOC. Unsurprisingly, most of his production is focused on Sancerre, but he also makes small amounts of Quincy and Pouilly-Fume.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIntense and aromatic with flinty lemon and green apple fruit on the nose.
