Viez

Etymology
Uncertain. Possibly from, from , in the sense of “wine substitute”. The V-spelling at any rate seems to be based on this interpretation.

Alternatively from as the word formerly also referred to a drink made from water and pomace (residue after pressing grapes). The development from Latin to  would be in line with Moselle Franconian dialects (but note that Luxembourgish  should be  in this case).

Noun

 * 1)  cider, apple wine
