Sometimes I want to crash the national convention of professional color namers and smack them all with a giant wet, scaly dead fish, you know?

THIS, SO MUCH. I laugh myself silly at the "tastes of cherries and raspberries with overtones of mahogany" sort of wine descriptions, because 1. if it tasted like cherries instead of like spoiled grapes, I would actually drink it, and 2. really, how many people go round the lumber yard licking planks often enough that they have any clue what "mahogany" tastes like and how it compares to "oak" or whatever?
