How does making mention of wine that is unlike any wine consumed on earth detract from the Qur'an's clarity? This has nothing to do with the Qur'an's clarity, rather it seems you have a problem with the concept of two things being very different but sharing the same name. For instance, Allaah (swt) has told us that He has a Hand, but obviously His Hand is unlike the human hand. Does that mean there is a contradiction or lack of clarity? No! This concept is even seen elsewhere, for example, a clock has hands, yet those hands are very different to human hands.

What is the difficulty in accepting a place beyond human comprehension? This is a straightforward description, but I think you are making it difficult for yourself by seeking more details of something that is at the outset beyond imagination and worldly experience.
