Wood for wine barrels (3)

I believe the answer is:

oak

(Other definitions for oak that I've seen before include "Large tree" , "Its seed is the acorn" , "From little acorns does it grow" , "door at Oxford" , "Nose of certain wines" .)

I've seen this clue in the Universal and The Washington Post.
