The Daily Telegraph Wine Review, May 2014: What is

this extraordinary wine with such a distinctively pale garnet colour; that comes

at you with the spooling fluidity of pinot noir,

but which, in place of pinot’s fragrant nosegay of berries and cherry blossom, has a calmer, bucolic smell, very outdoorsy?

What really stands for (which means) “Stop the apathy”?

Of course the “often smelled outdoors” smells. But what do I smell of out doors? I can think of a word referring to various specific scents that recall being out in nature:

earthy, woodsy / woody, mossy, mildewed, moldy, pine, loamy, flowery, fresh. And more of a stretch: crisp, musky, animalic, sweet, heady (like “the thick smell of nectar”)

I mean there is that something where you breathe “some fresh air” and just feel good, and I find the most evocative descriptions of it have to be phrases, usually by a damn good writer. Am I the only one having petrious perfumes?
