The sack around tavern is stored like wine (6)

I believe the answer is:

binned

'stored like wine' is the definition.
(wine may be stored in a wine bin)

'the sack around tavern' is the wordplay.
'the sack' becomes 'bed' ('in the sack' means 'in bed').
'around' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'tavern' becomes 'inn' (I've seen this before).
'bed' enclosing 'inn' is 'BINNED'.

'is' is the link.

(Another definition for binned that I've seen is " Discarded".)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
