Wine lover, terrible glutton (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

wolverine

'glutton' is the definition.
('wolverine' can be a synonym of 'glutton')

'wine lover terrible' is the wordplay.
'terrible' is an anagram indicator.
'wine'+'lover'='winelover'
'winelover' anagrammed gives 'WOLVERINE'.

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

I've seen this clue in The Times.
