Old fortified wine for sale abroad (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

export

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

'sale abroad' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.

'old fortified wine' is the wordplay.
'old' becomes 'ex'.
'fortified wine' becomes 'port' (port is a kind of fortified wine**).
'ex'+'port'='EXPORT'

'for' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for export that I've seen before include "Send (goods) overseas" , "Item sent abroad" , "Sell or transfer abroad" , "Dispose of to another country" , "Sell or give to another country" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
