The 2010 Stepping Stone Corallina Napa Valley Rosé by Cornerstone Cellars begins with pleasant aromas of strawberry, melon, tomato, herbal and floral notes. The wine tastes of strawberry, watermelon, citrus, and tomato with some slight herbal and vegetable notes balancing the fruit. There is a little bit of pepper on the slightly tart finish. The Corallina has good acidity, pretty good flavor and tastes fresh — a solid 8/10 on the Taste scale but the $18 price brings the overall rating down.
