News about wine (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

report

'news' is the definition.
(I know that report is a type of news)

'about wine' is the wordplay.
'about' becomes 're' ('re' means regarding or about).
'wine' becomes 'port' (port wine is a kind of wine).
're'+'port'='REPORT'

(Other definitions for report that I've seen before include "Statement of fact" , "Formal document" , "Relate; gun noise" , "Formal statement" , "Gunfire noise; rumour" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
