SUMMARY:Hermit Ram Ground Bar Takeover
DESCRIPTION:Get to know the characterful Hermit Ram range with Theo Coles at Ground Wine Bar \nDrop in at Ground Wine Bar on the evening of 9th June\, where they’ve opened up JUST for us! Theo Coles of Hermit Ram will be pouring a stellar lineup of their characterful\, site-driven wines. Expect drops with personality\, texture\, and a strong sense of place. \nHosted by winemaker\, Theo Coles and supported by our own Ethan Dawes\, it’s going to be a fascinating exploration in an unmatched atmosphere. \n  \n\n\n\n\n\nAbout Hermit Ram\n“It all began in 2002 when I stumbled across an etching of a large gnarly looking ram standing in a field during my travels. He was defiant\, a little sauvage\, had an old world charm and was very New Zealand. I bought him\, had him framed and hung him up in my lounge…” \n10 years after finding his gnarly ram etching\, winemaker Theo Coles met Gareth Renowden\, the owner of the Limestone Hills vineyard in the Waipara Gorge. Gareth’s vineyard ticked all the boxes of what Theo looked for in an interesting site\, being close planted\, naturally farmed and small. \n“I made the first vintage of Pinot Noir in 2012\, all naturally\, no additions and matured in neutral oak hogsheads. As the wine progressed through maturation it got better and better\, and revealed its true vineyard character to me. It had an exciting mix of savoury fruit aromatics and salivating salty acidity. I had to bottle it. \nI was sitting on my couch contemplating how I’d present the wine in bottle and I looked up. There staring me in the face was the framed etching of the Ram. It all made sense.” \nSo ‘The Hermit Ram’ came into being. He summed up the ethos of working with tiny sites and ancient techniques applied to New Zealand flavours\, that Theo really wanted to pursue. \nToday\, the range of wines has expanded. In general the fruit comes from tiny vineyards throughout the Canterbury region of New Zealand. Every wine has it’s own story to tell. The vines are naturally farmed and the wines made with the minimal amount of additions. Old techniques are employed. They are wines of depth\, complexity\, individuality and most importantly drinkability.” \n\n
