Montes Limited Selection Carmenere

Montes Limited Selection Carmenere laat mooi zien waarom Carmenère zo’n geliefde rode wijn uit Chili is. Waarom is Montes Limited Selection Carmenere zo’n goede kennismaking met deze stijl? Omdat hij de sappige charme van Carmenère combineert met een structuur die je van Cabernet Sauvignon zou verwachten, daarnaast komt hij uit het topgebied: Colchagua Valley. Al met al een wijn die veel meer biedt dan je op basis van de prijsklasse zou verwachten. Bij Montes staat sinds 1987 alles in het teken van kwaliteit, van de keuze voor toproofvalleien als Apalta en Marchigüe tot de nauwgezette selectie van iedere druif in de kelder. Deze wijn is daar een schoolvoorbeeld van.

Wijngaarden en regio

De druiven voor Montes Limited Selection Carmenere komen uit twee van de belangrijkste wijngaarden van Montes in de Colchagua Valley: Apalta en Marchigüe. In Apalta liggen de percelen tegen de heuvels waar de bodem dun is en bestaat uit een mix van alluviale zand- en kleigronden met veel verweerd graniet, wat zorgt voor lage opbrengsten en geconcentreerd fruit. De Carmenère staat op de vlakkere delen, in diepere bodems met een matige waterretentie die de rijping mooi vertragen. In Marchigüe zijn de hellingen zachter en zijn de bodems ondieper, vaak niet meer dan 60 cm, met een duidelijk aandeel klei en een grote capaciteit om vocht vast te houden, wat de druiven zelfs in warme jaren beschermt tegen droogtestress. De wijngaarden zijn dicht beplant, met 5.555 stokken per hectare en een opbrengst rond 9.000 kg per hectare, waardoor de druiven veel smaak en kleur ontwikkelen.

Vinificatie en rijping

De druiven worden met de hand geoogst en in kleine containers naar de kelder gebracht, waar de trossen eerst handmatig worden gecontroleerd voordat ze worden ontsteeld. Alleen het beste fruit gaat de tank in voor een korte koude inweking van ongeveer 3 dagen, een techniek waarbij het sap nog zonder gisting in contact staat met de schillen voor extra kleur en aroma. Daarna volgt de alcoholische gisting met geselecteerde gisten in roestvrijstalen en betonnen tanks, die 7 tot 10 dagen duurt tot alle suiker is vergist. De wijn blijft vervolgens onder gecontroleerde temperatuur in dezelfde tanks voor de malolactische gisting, waarbij scherpe appelzuren worden omgezet in zachtere melkzuren zodat de structuur rond en soepel wordt. Na deze tweede gisting rijpt 47% van de wijn ongeveer 10 maanden in Franse eikenhouten vaten van verschillende leeftijden, terwijl de rest in betonnen tanks blijft om het fruit en de frisheid te bewaren, waarna de uiteindelijke blend wordt samengesteld en gebotteld. Met een alcoholpercentage rond 14,5% en zorgvuldige rijping kan Montes Limited Selection Carmenere probleemloos enkele jaren verder ontwikkelen in de fles.

Proefnotities en serveertips

In het glas toont Montes Limited Selection Carmenere een diepe karmijnrode kleur. De neus is gul, met rijp rood en zwart fruit zoals aardbei, kers, pruim, gedroogde vijg en zwarte bes, aangevuld met tonen van nootmuskaat, vanille, kastanje en een vleugje rook door de rijping in Frans eiken. In de smaak proef je een middelvolle, soepele rode wijn met fluweelzachte tannines, veel sappigheid en een lange, levendige afdronk. Serveer deze wijn rond 17 tot 19 °C, bij voorkeur na een korte decanteertijd van ongeveer 30 minuten zodat de aroma’s volledig openkomen. Aan tafel is hij uitstekend bij roergebakken rundvlees, gekruide varkenskarbonades, spaghetti bolognese, lamskoteletten of een romige risotto met paddenstoelen.

Hard to Destroy
Style: Bunny
My puppy hasn’t been able to destroy it yet. All other toys have only lasted about 10 minutes.

So many squeakers!
Color: Squeaker Matz Gator, Size: X Large (Pack of 1)
I have 3 golden retrievers. They love this toy. While the head came off because they played tug-o-war with it, the rest has held up mostly for 5-6 months. At this point sometimes a squeaker will pop out. There are so many squeakers in this toy! However, they still use it for tug-o-war, I am surprised it has lasted this long. There is only stuffing in the head.

Cute, durable toy.
Color: Squeaker Matz Gator, Size: X Large (Pack of 1)
It's about as durable as you can expect a stuffed animal to be. I have two new puppies who are still teething and they love these things. I got the Kyjen sheep mat version (it's a square shape, rather than the two rows of squeakers) for the little girl. Both dogs sleep with it in their crate and we take them on trips with us. I've gone so far as to open up the toy and replace the broken squeakers (costs about 5$ for 30 large squeakers). The rest of the toy is fine. Our german shepherd puppy absolutely loves the rattle that's located in the head of the gator as well. The rattle also helps initially getting the dog engaged with chewing on the toy rather than your clothing or furniture. Then they discover the squeakers and it's endless entertainment and a good distraction for your dogs. I haven't had any problems with the thin, decorative material that's represent the teeth, claws and back fins. It's a slightly thicker felt that's soft and flimsy. Honestly, I'm not worried about it. Even if they were to eventually chew these off, they're not a choking hazard. Our little guy has thrown up solid pieces of kibble that are larger and harder than this. Seriously now, common. The eyes are sewn into the head, so there's no risk of pulling them off and swallowing. I toss these in the washer on a gentle cycle to clean off the slobber and dirt about once every couple weeks and the squeakers are fine, though they sometimes have to dry out to be 100% functional again. It never takes long. Overall, I love the amount of squeakers just due to the breaking problem with have with single squeaker toys. Once they break, the dog loses interest. Which is also a nice way to train the dogs the difference between the non-squeaking kids toys. The dogs absolutely love this toy and wont sleep without it. When the fabric eventually wears out (not even a slight issue after a few months), I'll be buying another one.

Great Toy, HUGE, small dog loves,
Color: Squeaker Matz Gator, Size: X Large (Pack of 1)
For the price this is my favorite toy! My 4 lb Chihuahua LOVES this thing. He is smaller than it by a long shot, yet he loves to parade this around, showing how big he is and can handle this huge GATOR. LOL. Friends come up to the porch, and he runs back to grab his GATOR to bring it up for them to see. Only thing with these toys - for my dog - we have several of these he loves - he cannot make them squeak. He jumps on them, chews on them, but just doesn't have the power. That being said, think about it, he loves the things, I mean LOVES. Sleeps with them, parades them out, fights with them when he's alone, has a great time - .... Evidently, it's me - I MISS THE SQUEAK! I watch him, and root for him, and every now and then (rare), I hear he got a squeak. Still, he doesn't care! So.... interactive time! I go out and play with him and Mr. GATOR, and I make it squeak, and we all have EXTRA fun. Note, my little guy is what they call an EXTREMELY AGGRESSIVE CHEWER. He chews in his sleep (kidding). He's really a tough chewer. He however, uses these more for wrestling, and attacking, and carrying around and sleeping on, etc. So none of ours have tears in them, though he does attack and chew all of it - I think these products are super wonderful, and I have to buy several more, like the hide-a-toy ones (beehive, squirrel, etc.) because I know the quality, I know my Chihuahua loves them to pieces - while he hasn't actually been able to render them in pieces! Win-win for us. You decide what your dog is like. Mine has his snoopy blanket and a huge victory in his mind over this large GATOR - his friend all day long.
