Crossword Genius

Wine from clubs, drunk later (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

claret

'wine' is the definition.
(I know that claret is a type of red wine)

'clubs drunk later' is the wordplay.
'clubs' becomes 'c' (abbreviation used in card games such as bridge).
'drunk' indicates an anagram.
'later' is an anagram of 'laret'.
'c'+'laret'='CLARET'

'from' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for claret that I've seen before include "Dark purplish-red colour" , "Cartel for Bordeaux red wine" , "vessel might contain this?" , "Dry red wine of Bordeaux" , "Dark red Bordeaux wine" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
