Question: is pouilly fume a chardonnay?
Answer: Pouilly-Fumé is located in the Loire Valley and is known for white wines based on sauvignon blanc, just like its neighbouring appellation of Sancerre (which also makes small quantities of rosé and red). Pouilly-Fuissé, on the other hand, lies in southern Burgundy, and the wines can only be made from chardonnay.
