This pink Wensleydale cheese that tastes like prosecco is described as being a millennial's dream. Available from the Great British Cheese Company, the Wensleydale with Raspberry and Prosecco has a visually appealing millennial pink hue and a redder rind. The waxed cheese truckle would make a delicious holiday gift for foodies, but especially [wine and cheese lovers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-drunken-goat) who also have a thing for pink.

The [festive Wensleydale cheese](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cheese-wheel-cake) is perfect for people with a sweet tooth. The dairy product "has a supple and crumbly texture and a milky freshness, paired with fruit such as Cranberries, the acidity cuts through rich cheese resulting in a balanced flavor." The cheese is available as part of different deals and joins the ranks of other very British-sounding cheeses like Sticky Toffee Tastic and Lancaster Bomber.
