11/20/26 (FRIDAY) Champagne Wine Dinner at Falmouth Country Club | 6PM
Few combinations are as luxurious as beautiful Champagne paired with extraordinary food.
For this special four-course Champagne Wine Dinner, Sommelier Erica Archer will select four distinctive Champagnes to accompany an indulgent menu from Chef Labonte and his culinary team, created especially for the evening. Expect Maine lobster, steak, truffles, and more, thoughtfully brought together in a progression of beautiful champagnes and food pairings.
The evening will explore the remarkable diversity of Champagne, from the elegance and finesse of Blanc de Blancs to the depth and richness of Blanc de Noirs, from Grower-Producer plots, through beautifully balanced Demi-Sec.
Each of the four Champagnes will be thoughtfully paired with its own course, showcasing how beautifully Champagne can complement everything from delicate, luxurious flavors to richer, more decadent cuisine.
Four beautiful Champagnes. Four incredible courses. An exquisite evening of fine wine and food at Falmouth Country Club.
