Vetting Status: high

[Meaning] unmixed-wine-drinkers.

Notes:
Same or very similar entry in other lexica, glossing a rare word for expressing this (see LSJ s.v. at web address 1) with a more common one. (Both, in fact, leave 'wine' unstated.)
At Hesychius zeta268 Latte claims the source of the headword as the poems of Gregory of Nazianzus. Another (better?) possibility is the opening line of a poem by the epigrammatist Hedylus, preserved in Athenaeus, Deipnosophists 11.497D (11.97 Kaibel) = Greek Anthology Appendix #67.
cf. zeta 164.
