vin liquoreux n. m.
Terme anglais : liquorous wine

Synonymes :
very sweet wine
vin liquoreux

Définition :
Vin blanc doux ayant une teneur en sucres résiduels de plus de 40 grammes par litre.

Notes :
Les sucres résiduels sont ceux qui n'ont pas été transformés en alcool pendant la fermentation. La teneur exceptionnelle de ce type de vin en sucres résiduels peut être due à la présence de pourriture noble sur les raisins, au passerillage ou encore à l'action du froid.
Les sélections de grains nobles et les vins de glace sont généralement des vins liquoreux.
