City of NE Italy (7)

I believe the answer is:

trieste

(Other definitions for trieste that I've seen before include "NE Italy port" , "Italian city, James Joyce's 13" , "One would have found a testier James Joyce there" , "Italian Adriatic port" , "European city" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
