JEAN VESSELLE is a family-run champagne house founded in 1930. As a récoltant-manipulant that cultivates, brews, and sells its own grapes, the house is a producer that values the champagne-making philosophy that has been passed down since its founding.
It is also known as a maison that loves Japan, and is famous for being the first country it chose as an export destination in the 1990s.

Among the estate’s vineyards, the most noteworthy is the village of Bougie, which is designated as a Grand Cru. This is a region that produces powerful Pinot Noir of the highest quality.

While the basic stance of the house is to make every effort to cultivate high quality grapes, it is also strongly committed to activities that preserve the Champagne region, and is characterized by grape cultivation that combines “quality maintenance” and “environmental preservation”. In 2000, the use of herbicides was completely abolished, and in 2007, solar panels and rainwater recycling systems were installed.

Jean Vesselle is known from its long history of champagne making as a maison with high technology and commitment in barrel use, so much so that a brewing room dedicated to barrels is installed.
By the way, Jean Vesselle provides barrels not only for wine making but also as furniture. Rather than disposing of used barrels, the work of breathing new life into them as furniture may also lead to the environmental conservation advocated by the maison.

The cuvée available with the “Champagne Included Plan” is “Brut Oeil de Perdrix”. “Oeil de Perdrix”, made with 100% Pinot Noir and named “eye of the partridge”, is a bottle filled with Jean Vesselle’s commitment. It is a light rosé color with a slightly pink tinge made by the direct pressing method. It is a rare champagne with a natural and elegant fruitiness that combines the best of both rosé and white, created by the terroir of Bouzy, which is ideal for Pinot Noir. Why not try this one-of-a-kind champagne that is particular about Pinot Noir?
