Pub's bill for French wine (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

barsac

'for french wine' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'pub's bill' is the wordplay.
'pub's' becomes 'bar's' (both are drinking establishments).
'bill' becomes 'ac' (short for account).
'bars'+'ac'='BARSAC'

(Other definitions for barsac that I've seen before include "Sweet Bordeaux wine" , "French wine" , "Scarab (anag) - sweet white wine" , "some from France" , "18 [WINE]" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
