Bubblyothèque Champagne is wine. (Seems obvious. Or does it?) It is also special. And fun. Jeannette Bubblyothèque Thursday Dinner Series, September 29th 2016 (Just like you.) It is undeniable: champagne is perfect for important events and special moments - just hearing the POP and seeing the bubbles can lift your spirits in an instant. But, when we save it for special occasions, or just drink it for the bubbles without considering the wine they are animating, we miss a great opportunity. The best winemakers in Champagne will tell you “Wine first, Bubbles after. ”While that’s a factual statement, it is also part of the philosophy that underlies a veritable Golden Age for the appellation. The region is full of a new generation of vignerons who are thoughtful, dedicated, and tirelessly finding the way forward in a time of climate change, evolving tastes, and demand for wines that clearly show their terroir or sense of place. Tonight, we want you to a) eat and drink well, b) have fun, and c) begin to think of how the wines of Champagne demonstrate an intriguing range of style and complexity. Not only that, there are many that cost far less than mass-produced bottles on the shelves of the Piggly Wiggly and which are approximately a bazillion times more delicious. You just have to understand them as wines first, realize that big name is not (always) equal to best wine, and taste, taste, taste. Oh, and have knowledgeable and enthusiastic guides to show you the way. And that’s where the Bubblyothèque comes in. I’ll be your guide - not only nights like this lovely pop-up bar at Jeannette, but paired tastings and dinners as we’ve done in this space before, my ongoing educational series of tastings at Swirl, and “just because” (no other reason necessary for champagne) events around town. We’ll be here, there, and everywhere - the Bubblyothèque is - for now, anyway - a moveable fȇte, if you will. Drink, Learn, Have Fun. Bubblyothèque. (Maybe even dance a bit - it does rhyme with discothèque after all….) Thanks for joining!
