Despite Meghan Markle premiering her new brand, American Riviera Orchard, in March 2024, there have been no other updates for the public. Meghan has slightly promoted some products online, via her friends who have gotten her exclusive strawberry jam, dog treats, and raspberry jam. However, those are reportedly not the products she’s going to officially launch to the public. These reports claim she’s truly going back to her roots, and will be releasing wine.

Inside sources claimed to DailyMail that Meghan’s release of these jams and biscuits are only a red herring, and that her first launch will actually be a rose wine.

The publication talked about how many celebrities have gone the route of releasing alcoholic drinks, and Meghan will reportedly be no different. Not much else is known, but the publication did note: “It’s expected that other products in the initial tranche of releases will be drinking and serving ware, bar essentials and other products, related to hosting and entertaining. We can expect items in classic, but expensive, style.”

Now, how does releasing wine mean she’s going back to her roots? Let us explain. Remember her blood, The Tig? It was actually named after the Tiganello, an Italian red wine that was Meghan adores, per Marie Claire UK.

So, why a rose and not a red wine? Per DailyMail, rose holds a very special place in Meghan’s heart because it was reportedly her drink of choice during her first date with Prince Harry.

For those who don’t know, Meghan has had a history of blogging for a long time, even before her well-known lifestyle The Tig, which lasted from 2014 to 2017, after she started getting serious with Prince Harry.

Even before The Tig, she anonymously ran a blog from 2010 to 2012 called The Working Actress, which detailed the “pitfalls and triumphs of struggling to make it in Hollywood.” per Hello.
