Wine lover disturbed carnivore (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

wolverine

'carnivore' is the definition.
(I know that wolverine is a type of mustelid)

'wine lover disturbed' is the wordplay.
'disturbed' is an anagram indicator (the order of letters is disturbed).
'wine'+'lover'='winelover'
'winelover' with letters rearranged gives 'WOLVERINE'.

(Other definitions for wolverine that I've seen before include "Evil owner of lupine female" , "Large forest mammal - North American glutton" , "Wild animal, also known as glutton" , "glutton, in America" , "Large carnivore" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
