BO is slang for "body odor" or perhaps in this case "bottle odor". It
might be applied to a person, or perhaps a dog, who has not had a bath
in a few days. Anyway, it is a smell that most do not like. Many very
old wines do not smell very good when you first pull the cork and
rapidly sniff at the open neck of the botle, but this smell often soon
blows away unless the wine has a serious fault such as being corked,
badly oxidized, etc.
