Thnks a lot, I had found the identical expression in Portuguese, but this is the answer I was looking for, given that the text I have relates specifically to French wines.

Ik ben het eens met Jarry, \"produit\" is zonder \"s\" en bovendien is het merkwaardig dat de punten voor een vertaling naar het Engels aan een antwoord in het Frans gegeven worden...
Eigenlijk had je dan in Nl>Fr gewoon de betekenis van de afkorting moeten vragen.
