Ben's vines are tangled (5)

I believe the answer is:

nevis

'ben's' is the definition.
(I have seen 'Highest Ben' mean 'nevis' so perhaps 'ben' could also mean 'nevis')

'vines are tangled' is the wordplay.
'are tangled' is an anagram indicator.
'vines' with letters rearranged gives 'NEVIS'.

(Other definitions for nevis that I've seen before include "Ben --, highest in UK" , "Ben -, highest Br. spot" , "Ben -, UK's highest mountain" , "Ben ..... is highest mountain in Britain" , "The Biggest Ben?" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
