The sediment that settles in a bottle of wine (4)

I believe the answer is:

lees

(Other definitions for lees that I've seen before include "Grounds" , "Sediment that settles at the bottom of wine" , "Sediement or else" , "Deposit" , "Dregs left by eels" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Times.
