More mature (5)

Ross

I think it could be either:

older

riper

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">more mature</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">('old' is associated in meaning with 'mature')</span><br/ ><br/ >This is the entire clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for older that I've seen before include "More advanced in point of time" , "as we all will be tomorrow" , "Advanced in years (but wiser?)" , "Less young" , "Elder" .)

I've seen this clue in the Penny Press, the Sydney Morning Herald, The Star Tribune, the Newsday, The Times, the King Feature Syndicate, The New York Times, the LA Times, The Guardian and The Sun.
