Less obviously striking than Sancerre and its vineyards, there are nevertheless some very attractive parts of Pouilly-sur-Loire and its vineyards. Photos mainly taken late October 2006.
Much of the centre of Pouilly is pretty faded – echoes of the glory days when the N7 used to run through the small town – the firmly closed La Bouteille d'Or has long lost its lustre.

Up towards Saint-Andelain – approximately as high as Sancerre – with the Domaine Didier Dagueneau buildings and winery on the right hand side at the top of the ridge
