Subtle distinction (6)

Ross

I think it could be either:

nicety

nuance

(Other definitions for nicety that I've seen before include "Subtle difference" , "Fine distinction" , "shade?" , "Judge to a . . . . . . - with precision" , "Small detail" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian, the King Feature Syndicate, The Telegraph and the USA Today.
