About awful fear for bottle (6)
I believe the answer is:
carafe
'for bottle' is the definition.
(carafe is a kind of bottle)
'about awful fear' is the wordplay.
'about' becomes 'ca' (abbreviation for circa).
'awful' indicates an anagram.
'fear' is an anagram of 'rafe'.
'ca'+'rafe'='CARAFE'
(Other definitions for carafe that I've seen before include "Serving vessel for water or wine" , "Glass bottle in which wine is served at table" , "Wine is decanted into it" , "keeper of wine" , "Source of wine" .)
