Fear I must abandon growing situation in Bordeaux? (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

terror

'fear' is the definition.
(I know that terror is a type of fear)

'i must abandon growing situation in bordeaux?' is the wordplay.
'must abandon' indicates named letters should be taken away.
'growing situation in bordeaux?' becomes 'terroir' (terroir means the growing conditions for a wine).
'terroir' with 'i' taken away is 'TERROR'.

(Other definitions for terror that I've seen before include "Troublesome kid" , "Extreme fright or dread" , "Out-of-control child" , "Utter dread" , "Overwhelming feeling of fear" .)
