Wine waiter’s romance, in embrace of German actress (9)
I believe the answer is:
sommelier
'wine waiter's' is the definition.
('sommelier' can be a synonym of 'wine waiter')
'romance in embrace of german actress' is the wordplay.
'romance' becomes 'lie' (I've seen this in other clues).
'in embrace of' indicates putting letters inside.
'german actress' becomes 'sommer' (Elke Sommer).
'lie' placed inside 'sommer' is 'SOMMELIER'.
(Other definitions for sommelier that I've seen before include "Restaurant owner" , "Wine waiter" , "Restaurant worker" , "One removes a capsule before opening" , "The wine expert-server in a hotel" .)
