Vin élaboré à partir de cépages nobles bien précis dont la richesse en sucre du jus correspond au minimum, à potentiel de 14 degrés d'alcool, au mout duquel on a ajouté, en cours de fermentation, 5 à 10 % de son volume d'alcool à 95 % d'origine exclusivement vinique qui arrête cette fermentation et permet d'obtenir en fin d'opération un produit titrant 16 à 18 degrés. 3, record 1, French, - vin%20doux%20naturel

Ces vins étaient autrefois appelés «vins d'Espagne». Le terme de «vin doux naturel» n'est pas non plus parfaitement approprié, car la fermentation est arrêtée artificiellement par le mutage, mais il a au moins le mérite de souligner que les VDN [vin doux naturel] ne sont pas des vins au sens strict appliqué en France [...] 4, record 1, French, - vin%20doux%20naturel
