More mature (5)

Ross

I think it could be either:

older

riper

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">more mature</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">('old' is associated in meaning with 'mature')</span><br/ ><br/ >This is the entire clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for older that I've seen before include "More advanced in point of time" , "as we all will be tomorrow" , "Advanced in years (but wiser?)" , "Less young" , "Elder" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald, The Guardian, The Star Tribune, The New York Times, the Penny Press, the LA Times, the Newsday, The Sun, the King Feature Syndicate and The Times.
