Point out red wine (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

pinot

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

'red wine' is the definition.
'pinot' can be an answer for 'wine' (I've seen this before). I am unsure of the 'red' bit.

'point out' is the wordplay.
'out' indicates an anagram (out can mean wrong or inaccurate).
'point' with letters rearranged gives 'PINOT'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for pinot that I've seen before include "Kind of wine grape" , "wine supplier?" , "drink" , "Variety of grape used for Burgundies and champagnes" , "Black or white grape variety" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
