Once more, reached area, tinted differently (10)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

reattained

'once more reached' is the definition.
('attained' can be a synonym for 'reached' so perhaps 'reattained' is OK for 'once more reached')

'area tinted differently' is the wordplay.
'differently' indicates anagramming the letters.
'area'+'tinted'='areatinted'
'areatinted' is an anagram of 'REATTAINED'.

I've seen this clue in The Daily Express.
