Revolutionary soldier given no wine shunned (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ignored

'shunned' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'revolutionary soldier given no wine' is the wordplay.
'revolutionary' shows that the letters should be reversed in order.
'soldier' becomes 'gi' (government issue or general issue).
'given' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'wine' becomes 'red' (red wine is a kind of wine**).
'gi' back-to-front is 'ig'.
'ig'+'no'+'red'='IGNORED'

(Other definitions for ignored that I've seen before include "Paid no heed" , "overlooked" , "cast aside" , "Paid no attention to" , "Shunned" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
