In a large, heavy stock pot, melt butter over low heat. Add onion, beans, potatoes and mushrooms and stir fry for 4 to 6 minutes. Add chicken stock and wine to stock pot and stir, then stir in the asparagus and herbs and spices, including garlic; turn heat up to medium or medium-high and bring to a boil. Boil, uncovered, for 10 minutes or until all vegetables are tender; turn down heat. Stir in milk, then cream cheese, then shredded cheeses; slowly heat, stirring continuously, to dissolve cheese. Keep at a simmer but DO NOT allow soup to come to a rolling boil. When all cheese has dissolved, remove from heat and fish out the bay leaf and discard. Whisk in water as needed to yield exactly 4 quarts. Taste; more salt may be necessary. Serve immediately, or reheat very gently to serve.
