[October 9 Only] Nicolas Feuillatte Maker's Dinner

Cuvée J2 Hôtel Osaka by Onko Chishin, operated by Onko Chishin Inc., a company that produces destination hotels that become the purpose of one’s journey, (Location: Osaka City, Osaka Prefecture; General Manager: Hotaka Ihara; hereinafter referred to as “Cuvée
J2”), will host a makers dinner themed around the Champagne House Nicolas Feuillatte (hereinafter “Nicolas Feuillatte”) on Friday, October 9, 2026. On the day, we will welcome Mr. Jean-François Lagarde, who leads Nicolas Feuillatte’s international business, and invite guests to enjoy a lineup of five selections, including Nicolas Feuillatte’s prestige cuvée Palme d’Or, marking the House’s 50th anniversary, as well as the rare long-aged Chronothèque bottles.

| The Stories of 11 Houses Told by the World’s First Official Champagne Hotel

Cuvée J2 Hôtel Osaka is the world’s first official Champagne hotel, formally partnered with 11 prestigious Champagne Houses.
The hotel features 11 guest rooms, each expressing the unique world of one of these Houses, allowing guests to experience Champagne culture itself through their stay.
In addition, as an opportunity to gain a deeper understanding of each House’s philosophy, history, and terroir, the hotel regularly hosts makers dinners. More than simply tasting Champagne, guests are invited to engage with the culture behind it and the passion of its producers, discovering the stories woven by each of the 11 Houses.

| Nicolas Feuillatte as a Creator of Supreme Cuvées on Its 50th Anniversary

In the world of Champagne, history and tradition are often the focus. However, this time Cuvée J2 intentionally turns the spotlight not on Nicolas Feuillatte as one of the world’s top-selling brands, but as a creator of supreme cuvées.
On the occasion of its 50th anniversary, guests will be able to experience the time the House has built up through a single cuvée: Palme d’Or.
On this occasion, in addition to the standard vintages, we will also present the rare long-aged Palme d’Or Chronothèque series. Chronothèque is a special series reserved only for bottles that the House has carefully stored in its own cellars after determining the ideal moment of maturation. Opportunities for these bottles to appear on the market are extremely limited, and tasting vintages aged for more than 25 years is a rare experience even for Champagne connoisseurs.

[September 11 Only] Jean Vesselle Maker's Dinner

Cuvee J2 Hotel Osaka by Onko Chishin, operated by Onko Chishin Inc., a company that produces destination hotels that become the purpose of travel, (Location: Osaka City, Osaka Prefecture; General Manager: Hotaka Ihara; hereinafter “Cuvee J2”), will host a makers dinner themed around the Champagne house 「」 (hereinafter “Jean Vesselle”) on Friday, September 11, 2026.

At Cuvee J2 Hotel Osaka, makers dinners are held on an ongoing basis as opportunities to gain a deeper understanding of the philosophy, history, and terroir of each of its 11 official partner maisons. These events are designed not only to enjoy Champagne, but also to experience the culture and the passion of the producers behind it.

This edition will spotlight Jean Vesselle, a récoltant-manipulant representing Bouzy, a Grand Cru village in the Montagne de Reims area of Champagne. It will also be the first makers dinner hosted by Cuvee J2 Advisor Haruhiko Sanaga since his appointment as an official ambassador of the maison in April 2026.

On the day, guests will enjoy pairings with Edomae sushi while exploring the philosophy and terroir of Jean Vesselle.

Jean Vesselle, the featured maison

Jean Vesselle is a récoltant-manipulant (RM) based in Bouzy village (100% Grand Cru) in the Montagne de Reims area of Champagne, France.

Since its founding in 1930, the maison has managed every step of production in-house, from cultivation to vinification, across its 15-hectare estate vineyards, producing approximately 145,000 bottles annually. Around 70% of this production is exported worldwide, with Japan as its largest export market.

Since 2000, the maison has completely eliminated the use of herbicides and has actively pursued environmentally conscious initiatives, including the introduction of solar energy and a rainwater recycling system. Today, the second-generation owner Delphine Vesselle and her husband David lead the maison, continuing to express the terroir of Bouzy through wines that embody strength, refinement, and delicacy.

Jean Vesselle’s signature cuvée, Cœur de Bacchus

Cœur de Bacchus means “the heart of Bacchus” in French. Named as though in tribute to Bacchus, the god of wine and abundance, this cuvée is the symbolic expression of Jean Vesselle, born from the finest parcels of Bouzy Grand Cru as Champagne Extra Brut Grand Cru Cuvée Cœur de Bacchus. An Extra Brut unique to a maison where Pinot Noir accounts for 90% of plantings, it beautifully balances power and finesse. With dosage reduced to the utmost limit, its pure expression makes it an ideal partner for enhancing the delicate umami of sushi.

About Ambassador Haruhiko Sanaga

Cuvee J2 Advisor Haruhiko Sanaga is a Champagne specialist who holds the title of Chevalier of the Ordre des Coteaux de Champagne.

In April 2026, at a certification ceremony with Maison owner Delphine Vesselle, he was appointed as an official ambassador of Jean Vesselle.

This event marks the first makers dinner to be held since his appointment as ambassador. On the day, he will offer a deeper introduction to the appeal of Jean Vesselle, sharing the maison’s history, philosophy, and the passion of its producers.
