Terms like 'mizajoho min tasneem' does denote wine whose very dregs are from the spring (tasneem), or of Musk etc

Most good wines aren't about the alcoholic contents but about the body of flavors that have been aged and linger on the palate.. hence you'd find a description like a sauvignon, is herbaceous with tropical aromas
or a chenin blanc fresh, fragrant with peach aroma medium bodied and fruity..
you can have a look here

You will not see wine described as chablis ethanol 98%
or cabernet mostly isopropyl ( as illegal as that is) but hope you get the anaology?
because it isn't about the alcohol..
I'd hate to say this, but if you know about wine, then you'll actually get a full appreciation of what it means to have a drink described with dregs in musk or zanjabeel etc.. It is really a very deep description..
and undoubtedly from the mere description there is nothing earthy about it...

Hope that helps, especially the disagreeable ones, who thinks all provincial oafs?!
