Easily carried fortified wine given to expert (8)
I believe the answer is:
portable
'easily carried' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'fortified wine given to expert' is the wordplay.
'fortified wine' becomes 'port' (port is a kind of fortified wine).
'given to' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'expert' becomes 'able' (I've seen this before).
'port'+'able'='PORTABLE'
(Other definitions for portable that I've seen before include "Maybe laptop" , "Able to be carried" , "Laptop, for example" , "desirable type of pension" , "to take with you" .)
