Wine consumed by Bacchian tippler (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

chianti

'wine' is the definition.
(Chianti is an example)

'consumed by bacchian tippler' is the wordplay.
'consumed by' indicates the answer is hidden within the clue (I've seen this in other clues).
'CHIANTI' can be found hidden inside 'bacchian tippler'.

(Other definitions for chianti that I've seen before include "Popular dry red wine of Tuscany" , "Wine produced in Tuscany" , "I can hit for popular Italian wine" , "Dry red Italian wine" , "European wine" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
