'one flies from such warm' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.

'dry wine' is the wordplay.
'dry' becomes 'air' (airing is a kind of drying).
'wine' becomes 'port' (port is a kind of wine).
'air'+'port'='AIRPORT'

'and' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for airport that I've seen before include "Aviation centre" , "Place from which to fly" , "Place of takeoffs and landings" , "Novel by Arthur Hailey" , "Travel terminus" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
