Aroma suggests light wood, oak; lemon balm and wax; paraffin and petrol; and crushed daisy petals. Medium acid with a nice medium light body. Flavor of apple, lime, and key lime pie.
I didn't write down on my note if this was branco or tinto. Given the tasting notes, I'm about 95% sure it was branco. But this is a Dirk Niepoort wine, so I still have that 5% doubt.
