Rum comes out in parties, or a French red? (13)
I believe the answer is:
eurocommunist
'a french red?' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.
'rum comes out in parties' is the wordplay.
'parties' indicates an anagram (the letters move or party around).
'rum'+'comes'+'out'+'in'='rumcomesoutin'
'rumcomesoutin' anagrammed gives 'EUROCOMMUNIST'.
'or' is the link.
