Quoting the manual (info "(guix) Invoking guix download"):

     The ‘guix download’ command supports the same URIs as used in package
  definitions.  In particular, it supports ‘mirror://’ URIs.  ‘https’ URIs
  (HTTP over TLS) are supported _provided_ the Guile bindings for GnuTLS
  are available in the user’s environment; when they are not available, an
  error is raised.

:-)

Running ‘guix package -i gnutls’ and setting GUILE_LOAD_PATH as
suggested should enable GnuTLS support in ‘guix download’.

Let me know if there’s any problem.

HTH,
Ludo’.
