Nagaragawa Seiryu Hotel, set along the Nagara River in Gifu, is opening reservations September 1 (Tuesday) for a raw osechi to bring color to the New Year. Building on the traditional osechi with the hotel's own touches, the set packs in 22 dishes across a lavish tiered box, paired with a half bottle of Veuve Clicquot champagne — a fine-textured, smooth pour fitting for a New Year's toast — for a raw osechi that can only be had here.
Early-Purchase Lucky Draw: Everyone who orders during September will be entered into a drawing for 30 winners, each receiving a ¥5,000 Positive Dream Persons official gift ticket. Winners will be notified only through delivery of the prize.

A Bottle of Champagne for the New Year's Toast
A bottle of champagne suited to a New Year's toast is paired with the raw osechi: a half bottle of Veuve Clicquot, whose balanced acidity and fruitiness give it a refreshing character with a standout fruitiness.
A non-alcoholic option can also be selected in its place — two varieties of パトリック・フォン grape juice (Merlot red grape and Chardonnay white grape), a premium French nectar and juice made from fruit carefully selected at its ripest from around the world. A proprietary cold-press process concentrates the fruit's natural taste and aroma while preserving its nutrients intact.
