un vino abboccato non è affatto untuoso o viscoso (forse il liquoroso) però risulta gradevole al palato senza tuttavia avere quel contenuto zuccherino tale da farlo
rientrare nella categoria dei \'vini dolci\'. Per quanto riguarda il vino amabile... ufficialmente non esiste, diciano che si dice per un vino beverino, che si \'trangugia\' gradevolmente.

Explanation:
Dal Grande Dizionario Picchi, Lingue IT-Eng:

abboccato

1 (di vino) mild, semi-sweet, demi-sec, medium dry, sweetish

amabile:

3 (di vino) sweet, suave.


medium dry
/'mi:dK@mdraK/ a semisecco, demi-sec
1 medium dry wine = vino semisecco.
Si potrebbe pensare che un "semisecco" sia anche un "semidolce" e che quindi un medium sweet = medium dry
Buon lavoro
