Adores gin drunk with extravagance (9)
I believe the answer is:
grandiose
'adores gin drunk with extravagance' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.
'adores gin drunk' is the wordplay.
'drunk' indicates anagramming the letters.
'adores'+'gin'='adoresgin'
'adoresgin' anagrammed gives 'GRANDIOSE'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for grandiose that I've seen before include "Pretentiously impressive" , "Planned on a magnificent scale" , "Pretentiously imposing -- organised (anag)" , "Imposing and pompous, dressed in organdies" , "affected" .)
