Drink wine in comfort (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

support

'comfort' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'drink wine' is the wordplay.
'drink' becomes 'sup' (I've seen this before**).
'wine' becomes 'port' (port is a kind of wine).
'sup'+'port'='SUPPORT'

'in' is the link.

(Other definitions for support that I've seen before include "Provide financial backing or bolster" , "Help; bear" , "Give assistance to" , "Buttress" , "used to give strength?" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times and The Telegraph.
