Grangehurst Daylea Red 2015
R155,00
Over the years many of our customers have commented that although they enjoy Grangehurst wines, they are special occasion wines – not for everyday drinking. So I decided to blend and bottle a less expensive wine to be enjoyed regularly. We decided to name this “daily red” wine DAYLEA RED (and there is a story behind the spelling of this name!).
