2006 Montsant Laurona

Don’t worry, there’s a good reason these two pictures are included.  I don’t really remember what it is right now, but just enjoy the pictures and leave me alone.  This wine is Spanish, and I’m pretty sure Enrique Iglesias is too, but that’s where my research ends.  From my brief search on the wine it looks like it comes from the Cataluña region in Spain, and that’s A-OK with me.  Barcelona is a great city, and if anyone wants to send me there to do some research, I’m a great ambassador.  Even if it doesn’t actually come from that region, please don’t ruin it for me.  I enjoyed this wine a great deal more than the Colonel, and I think he wasn’t feeling well when he had it becuase he didn’t even review it, but I was fine with that since it meant I got to drink most of it myself.  I think it was around $30, which I still cringe at for a bottle of wine but it actually does make a difference.  Don’t worry, I’m not a snob, I’m just facing the hard truth that I can’t be cheap all the time.  So here’s my review of the wine, one day I’ll get it back in the house and maybe the Colonel will review it then.  If not, I’ll get the bottle to myself.  That’s what we call a win-win.

MobyGrape:  91. Can’t really identify the flavors but I don’t care. Very smooth and easy to drink, with a meal or alone, although I don’t know if I’d put it with a steak. I do know that I’d have this Enrique Iglesias hot buttered soul stomper any night of the week and enjoy it.
