Fine distinction (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

nicety

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

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for nicety that I've seen before include "Subtle difference" , "Nuance - icy net (anag)" , "Judge to a . . . . . . - with precision" , "Exactitude" , "Matter of delicate adjustment" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times and The Wall Street Journal.
