De Louis Michel Chablis Premier Cru Montmain 2022 laat mooi zien waarom dit huis zo geliefd is bij liefhebbers van pure Chablis: hier draait alles om spanning, kalkachtige precisie en een ziltige, terroirgedreven stijl zonder houtinvloed. Montmain ligt op de linkeroever van de Serein en staat bij Louis Michel bekend om zijn koelere, windopen ligging, wat deze wijn extra fraîcheur en focus geeft. Montmain is bovendien een Premier Cru-climat binnen Chablis. Wat is een Premier Cru in Chablis? Dat is een officieel erkend climat met een hogere kwaliteitsstatus dan gewone Chablis, gekoppeld aan een specifieke ligging en een eigen stijl.
Wijngaarden en regio
De kracht van deze wijn begint op de linkeroever van de Serein, in een climat dat frisheid en mineraliteit heel direct vertaalt naar het glas.
- Ligging / Herkomst: Montmain ligt op de linkeroever van de Serein, binnen de Premier Cru-zone van Chablis. Louis Michel werkt hier met 4 percelen binnen dit climat.
- Expositie: De wijngaarden hebben een zuidoostelijke expositie. Dat helpt om rijpheid op te bouwen, terwijl de wijn toch zijn strakke lijn behoudt.
- Bodem: De ondergrond is Kimmeridgisch, met harde kalksteen in een uitgesproken kleirijke matrix. Op sommige plekken is de bodem vrij diep, wat Montmain net wat meer breedte geeft zonder zijn krijtige karakter te verliezen.
- Klimaat & invloeden: Montmain is een koel, in sommige jaren zelfs koud climat dat gevoelig is voor voorjaarsvorst. De helling is open naar de wind, wat meehelpt aan een frissere, strakkere stijl.
- Wijngaard: De percelen zijn aangeplant in 1983 en 1987. Binnen het domein sluiten ze aan op wijngaarden met een gemiddelde leeftijd van ongeveer 50 jaar op de meest prestigieuze percelen van Chablis.
Vinificatie en rijping
In de kelder blijft Louis Michel heel bewust op de achtergrond, zodat Montmain vooral naar zijn eigen herkomst smaakt.
- Vergisting: De vergisting verloopt lang, met inheemse gisten en temperatuurgecontroleerde tanks. Daarna volgt spontane malolactische vergisting, wat extra textuur geeft zonder de frisheid uit de wijn te halen.
- Rijping / Houtopvoeding: De wijn rijpt 18–20 maanden uitsluitend in roestvrijstaal, met zo weinig mogelijk ingrepen. Juist die keuze houdt de wijn strak, precies en volledig gericht op kalk, zoutigheid en pure Chardonnay-expressie.
Druivensamenstelling
Hier draait alles om 1 druif die in Chablis zijn meest strakke en minerale gezicht kan laten zien.
- 100% Chardonnay – Chablis Premier Cru Montmain: Chardonnay vormt hier de volledige basis en geeft de wijn zijn combinatie van citrus, appel, krijtigheid en zilte spanning. In deze herkomst levert dat een pure, precieze en klassiek opgebouwde Chablis op.
Proefnotities en serveertips
In de neus krijg je kruidig bloemige tonen, geroosterde amandel, gekonfijte citroen en appel. De mond is levendig, krijtig en ziltig, met een pure aanzet en veel precisie. Dit is een toegankelijke maar serieuze Premier Cru met mooie energie en duidelijke terroirexpressie.
- Serveertemperatuur: 12–14 °C werkt hier het best, omdat dat bereik zowel de aromatische finesse als de krijtige spanning en zilte lengte mooi laat uitkomen.
- Gerechten: Schelp- en schaaldieren, rijke visgerechten zoals zalm of tonijn, en milde zachte kazen sluiten hier bijzonder goed op aan.
Bekroningen
- 4,1 sterren, Vivino: Een uitstekende waardering die laat zien dat Montmain ook bij wijnliefhebbers breed wordt gewaardeerd.

For the love of a dog!
Color: Blue, Style: Tootiez Hedgehog, Color: Blue, Style: Tootiez Hedgehog
Okay, first - this toy is a hoot. When you first get it and hear it's cute grunting/tooting sound, you can't help but grin and think, Yup! That sounds like somebody in here just tooted! Which for some reason always does seem to be a bit funny, doesn't it? And you'll probably find yourself chuckling a little and saying, Oh how cute. After that, the next logical step is you'll introduce the toy to your dog. And then, depending on your dog's particular personality, you may soon discover (as we did) the amazing love/hate relationship a human can develop with a simple dog toy.
We have a 1-yr-old standard poodle whom we named Kenda. And yes, he is named after Joe (for any of you ID fans out there). His official AKC registered name is Lieutenant Kenda, Home Inside Hunter. Corny? No doubt. But it truly seemed an appropriate name for him, because this is the first dog we've ever owned that actually LOVES to play with dog toys and will endlessly hunt them down throughout the house. No toy, however well hidden, stands a chance with this determined toy hunter. As Joe might say, he WILL find you! :) His toys are his friends, and he is fiercely devoted to them.
Enter the adorable little rubber hedgehog with his even more adorable "toot". The moment Kenda laid eyes (or ears?) on this little guy, all other toys were forgotten. It was love at first sight. So much so that within a few hours of him playing with this toy to the exclusion of all others, we decided to give him a name. We call him "Blue" (I know, we're so creative). Blue immediately became Kenda's best friend - or at least his best toy. He played with him constantly. He bit him, he wrestled with him, he chewed on him. He brought Blue to us and, if we were sitting down, very carefully placed this slobbery ball of rubber in our laps, as if asking, Can we play catch with Blue? Huh? Pretty please?? Sometimes we did, sometimes we didn't. On those occasions when we didn't, he would play catch with himself, picking Blue up in his mouth, swinging his head, and tossing him across the kitchen; then running/sliding across the kitchen floor to retrieve him on the other side of the room. In the beginning, if Blue was nowhere in sight (and with dogs, out of sight is usually out of mind), the hubby and I would get a kick out of saying, "Kenda, where's Blue?!" Just for the enormous fun of watching a 55-pound poodle suddenly leap a foot in the air, scramble his legs mid-air like Fred Flintstone getting his car started, then half running/half sliding across the kitchen hardwood floor in a desperate effort to find his beloved Blue. Oh, how we entertained ourselves in those early days watching Kenda with his Blue. And through it all, through every bite, squeeze, toss, push, throw, and chew of this toy.......the toot. The grunt. Okay, let's call it what it really sounds like, folks: a FART, okay? There, I've said it. It sounds like your grandpa just passed gas - bigtime. Funny? At first, yes. Hilarious. But a thousand times a day? Over and over and over? While you're trying to talk on the phone? While you're trying to have conversation with each other over coffee at the end of the day? Sometimes for an hour NON-STOP? Well, let's just say the humor of it all began to elude us a bit. And therein lies our love/hate relationship with this adorable little toy.
We thought we'd died and gone to heaven one day when Blue stopped tooting. Turns out Kenda had chewed on him so much his tooter (located rather anatomically correctly in his tushie) had fallen out. Or rather IN, since it was now in Blue's tummy. Poor Blue, he couldn't make noise anymore, and although Kenda kept playing with him you could tell he was confused as to why his little buddy had fallen silent and wouldn't "talk" to him anymore. And as much as the hubby and I were enjoying the tooting reprieve, we couldn't take it. By the third silent day, I could almost feel the invisible hands of Amazon coaxing me toward my computer, gently urging me to buy another Blue. But I resisted, folks. I did NOT buy another Blue. I bought TWO more Blues! One for now, and one for that possible future day when this Blue, too, falls silent. Why? Because ... well, because it's BLUE! He's practically a member of the family now. The dog loves Blue, and we love the dog. I guess it's that simple.
My final word on this dog toy? It's adorable. It's well made and will hold up to a ton of play and chewing. His tooter may not survive as long; I guess that remains to be seen. And if your dog is anything like mine, well then your sanity may take a hit as well. But if your dog loves his little hedgehog buddy as ours does, and if you love your dog (and you know you do!), then you might decide your sanity is worth the risk.
Two thumbs way, WAY up!
P.S. Blue now has a friend. We just bought the pink sheep. Kenda is in 7th heaven. Our house sounds like a retirement home after a chili bean supper. And yes, we named him "Pink". I told you - we are nothing if not creative.

My Dog's All-Time Favorite Toy
Color: Pink, Style: Grunt Sound
The first one of these I ever got her was at Petco on sale for $1 - best $1 ever!
The reviews are right, though. The toy doesn't last forever and it's not good for aggressive chewers. In my opinion, however, that doesn't make it a bad toy. Here's why:
Aggressive chewers comments: Getting my sister's French Bulldog a stuffed toy (that's shredded in 5 minutes), compared to my Pitbull who does not tear up any toys, but is a stronger chewer when it comes to bones. My pup does not tear this up at all, but my sister's dog would. My point is: Don't get your dog a soft toy if your dog ruins soft toys.
Regarding the not long-lasting comments: the honking noise mechanism inside eventually pops inside the hole, rendering it honkless. Ours lasted about 6 months. It's pretty much impossible to fix unless you want to trouble yourself to fix it for 1 good honk each fix. I would, but I do also have a job to get to. My dog does still carry it around in it's noiseless state, but she doesn't play with it with the same enthusiasm.
How did I resolve this? I bought her 5 😂 She's only on her second, but I decided to stock it because they were on sale for $5.10 - I don't think I will get rid of any of them. I will just let her play with them on rotation until they fall apart.
Besides all that, my dog just simply loves this toy. I have never seen her so happy & playful with a toy. I can't promise this for your dog, as I can only tell you about mine.
We even have a "Sheepy" song.
[I have not been paid or given free Sheeps - my Sweet Pea just really loves her Sheepy]

Loud! Just Like She Likes It
Color: Hedgehog, Style: Big Squeak Hedgehog
My Great Dane loves this noisy toy. She prefers squeaky toys with loud, unusual squeakers. (I need to invest in earplugs.) She's not an agressuve chewer or rough player so this should last a long time. Like most squeaky toys she has, the squeaker wears out before the physical toy does and once the noise is gone she won't play with it any more. If others have a similar issue...check with your local animal shelter. Some (not all) will disinfect used toys for the dogs in their care.

Fun while it lasts…
Color: Pink, Style: Grunt Sound
Fun while it lasts. Doesn’t last very long. This is our third one and last maybe a few weeks. The part that makes noise comes detached inside which causes to toy to no longer make noise, but also can be dangerous if it comes out.
