{"product_id":"mv-champagne-sourdet-diot-cuvee-prestige-brut","title":"MV Champagne Sourdet-Diot, \"Cuvée Prestige\" Brut","description":"\u003cp\u003eChampagne Sourdet-Diot is a family-owned grower estate in La Caure, a quiet village in the southern extension of the Vallée de la Marne. The family farms its own vineyards under sustainable HVE certification and works plot by plot, a very different model from the large houses that source fruit from across the region. Their parcels sit on clay-limestone and chalky marl, soils that give Champagne both generous fruit and a firm mineral edge, and the estate's cuvées are built to show that balance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"Cuvée Prestige\" is the top multi-vintage blend in the Sourdet-Diot range: 45% Chardonnay, 35% Meunier, and 20% Pinot Noir. Leaning on Chardonnay brings extra finesse and lift, while the two Pinots add depth and roundness. The base wine is fermented and aged in temperature-controlled stainless steel to keep its fruit and chalky tension intact, goes through full malolactic fermentation, and is then blended with a generous share of aged reserve wines. It spends three to four years on its lees in the estate's cellars before receiving a balanced Brut dosage. The result is a Champagne with real vinous weight that still feels poised and elegant.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy You'll Love It\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA refined grower Champagne where a Chardonnay-led blend brings finesse, with Meunier and Pinot Noir adding depth.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe nose shows baked yellow apple, white peach, and lemon curd, with toasted brioche, roasted nuts, and dried flowers from long lees aging.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA fine, creamy mousse carries the fruit across the palate, framed by bright acidity.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStainless steel vinification keeps the finish crisp, clean, and mineral.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRich enough to anchor a dinner party, yet fresh enough to open on its own as an aperitif.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow To Serve It\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eServe chilled between 46°F and 50°F.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo decanting needed.
