Champagne & Cheese! An Evening With Mystic Cheese & Transatlantic Bubbles

  • Mystic Cheese Company 225 Leonard Drive Groton, CT, 06340 United States (map)

Join us for a night of flavor, exploration, and perfect pairings as Spencer & Lynn Wine & Spirit Merchants team up with Mystic Cheese and Transatlantic Bubbles for a memorable Cheese & Champagne Pairing Event. If you appreciate small producers, artisanal craftsmanship, and discovering new flavors, this event is for you!

Why Champagne & Cheese?

There’s something magical about the combination of creamy, savory cheeses and crisp, effervescent champagnes. The bubbles cut through the richness of the cheese, while the cheese enhances the texture and complexity of the wine. But what makes this night truly special is our focus on grower-producers—small, independent artisans who craft their wines and cheeses with passion, precision, and a connection to the land.

We’ve curated five unique pairings featuring hand-selected cheeses from the expert team at Mystic Cheese and extraordinary champagnes chosen by Mike from Transatlantic Bubbles. These champagnes hail from grower-producers who put quality over quantity, and their wines are bursting with character, nuance, and authenticity.

🍾 A Sneak Peek at the Champagnes

    This pure Chardonnay champagne from Avize is lively and precise, with citrusy notes and chalky minerality that make it the perfect way to start the evening.

🍋 Tasting Notes: Lemon zest, green apple, and crushed stones

  1. 2018 Grongnet Special Club Brut
    Elegant with depth and balance.

🍏 Tasting Notes: Pear, baked apple, and hazelnut

  1. Champagne Guy Méa - L’Assemblage - Premier Cru - Extra Brut
