Jack, one opening wine, stayed behind (7)

I believe the answer is:

tarried

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'stayed behind' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both to do with motion as well as being past participle verbs.
Maybe you can see an association between them that I don't see?

'jack one opening wine' is the wordplay.
'jack' becomes 'tar' (both are informal terms for sailor).
'one' becomes 'i' (Roman numeral).
'opening' indicates putting letters inside (some letters open a gap in others).
'wine' becomes 'red wine' (red is a type of wine).
'i' going within 'red' is 'ried'.
'tar'+'ried'='TARRIED'
