The Tinguiririca River (Indian for "Loud River") flows from high in the Andes mountains across Chile to the Pacific Ocean. In the spring, when the snow-capped peaks begin to melt, the placid stream becomes a raging torrent.

Loud River Roaring Red is a full-bodied, powerful blend of spicy-fruity Carmenére, rich Syrah and peppery Petit Verdot. It shows expressive cherry and berry flavors, bursting with rich, ripe plums sparked with spices, pepper and tobacco.
