A gentile nose. Musty aromas blow off quite quickly to reveal aromas of fresh red berry compote, candied cherry and a touch of dried herbs and mint. Gentile and juicy on the palate with finely grained tannins. Flavors of red cherry and red raspberry lead to touch of mint, dried herbs, white pepper a spice. This is all balanced out by bright, juicy acidity. The finish is laced with soft tannins and acidity with just a lingering notion of red fruit. Wonderful with a Chicken Parmesan fit for the birthday girl! Happy birthday Kati! — 7 years ago

Bright, refreshing. Wonderful way to start the evening (yes I know it is white and its Italian) :0) — 8 years ago
Gentile waxy aromas with notes of white flowers and just a hint of white peach. Juicy on the palate with soft sweetness balanced by crisp, fresh acidity. Flavors of peach and apricot lead to a bright, slightly stony finish with minerality that dances on the tongue. — 9 years ago
Brought this back from our trip to Italy 2014 — 10 years ago
This wine was perfect to me. It was sweet and bubbly and bursting full of red fruit flavors. I've been trying a lot of white wines lately which have been delicious, but the red fruit flavors were a great change for me with this one! — 10 years ago

Sea spray to blood oranges...kaleidoscopic! Grand Cru in weight and texture. Long, complex acid finish. One of my white wines of the year! #biancugentile #corsica #leccia — 7 years ago
A beautiful, slightly darker pink in the glass. Aromas of cherry and rose petals mingle with just a hint of wet stone. A very gentile but refreshing frizzante on the palate with tiny, soft bubbles. Distinctively Pinot flavors of soft cherry, raspberry and currant lead to crisp, clean acidity and a drying minerality. The finish is dry and long with just a touch of tannin. A beautiful and different rose. — 8 years ago
Nice tart bite and fairly acidic, sweet cherry smell, very fruit forward but resides for awhile, alcohol is bright and overall good complexity but missing a level of cleanness I desire. — 9 years ago

Earthy aromas mixed with a hint of sour cherry. Very old world on the palate. Lots of earth and acidity. Gentile tannins and just a hint of fruitiness. Short, bright finish. — 10 years ago
Surprising dessert wine with hints of blueberries jam and licorice: a long lasting bitter-sweet flavor... Malbo gentile is a rare native vintage of Modena hills and Luigi Boni gave us its master interpretations. — 11 years ago

Un nebbiolo dal nord del Piemonte, tipico nel colore e nel corpo ma fine, delicato, gentile, fiori secchi, prugne, spezie, ben bilanciato e godibile fino in fondo nella sua profonda persistenza. la parte alta del Piemonte è da tenere d'occhio perché sforna delle piccole perle — 8 years ago
