Winemaking sediment (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

lees

(Other definitions for lees that I've seen before include "Knock back these dregs of liquor" , "Sediement or else" , "Sediment that settles at the bottom of wine" , "Sediment from fermentation of alcohol" , "Dregs left by eels" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
