DEF

Describes a white wine which has begun to turn brownish with age - often also acquiring a taste somewhat reminiscent of Madeira (hence the term).

French

  • Industrie vinicole
CONT

Un vin maderisé est un vin oxydé. [...] Le vin blanc prend une teinte ambrée, le vin rouge une teinte tuilée. Le goût est altéré : le vin prend une saveur spéciale, rappelant un peu le Madère.
