A drink for me and the medico (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

medoc

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'a drink' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I cannot tell whether it can be defined by this definition.

'me and the medico' is the wordplay.
'and' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'the medico' becomes 'doc' ('doc' can be a synonym of 'medico').
'me'+'doc'='MEDOC'

'for' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for medoc that I've seen before include "region of France" , "Type of wine" , "Red wine from southwest France" , "French intoxicant" , "French red wine" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
