'cited' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I can't tell whether this works.

'even countries get wine' is the wordplay.
'even' indicates alternate letters (letters in even-numbered positions are used).
'get' says to put letters next to each other.
'wine' becomes 'port' (port is a kind of wine).
The alternating letters of 'countries' are 'onre'.
'onre'+'port'='ON REPORT'
