Heron from the French river (5)

I believe the answer is:

rhone

(Other definitions for rhone that I've seen before include "French river from Alps to Mediterranean" , "River flowing from Alps to the French Med" , "12 wine region" , "European river and glacier" , "wine-producing area" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Times.
