Statement of facts about wine (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

report

'statement of facts' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'about wine' is the wordplay.
'about' becomes 're' ('re' means regarding or about).
'wine' becomes 'port' (port is a kind of wine).
're'+'port'='REPORT'

(Other definitions for report that I've seen before include "result of firing?" , "'Description, account (6)'" , "School student's assessment" , "Formal statement" , "Porter (anag.)" .)
