Older companion? (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

wiser

'older companion?' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for wiser that I've seen before include "Less foolish" , "Having learned one's lesson?" , "More judicious" , "A little more sage" , "More sensible" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
