Titch Hill is the project of Alex Tristram and Sam Bunker, who met while studying winemaking at Plumpton in 2017. The vines are planted on a farm that has been in Alex's family for generations, with his uncle taking a keen interest in environmental restoration in the early 1980s, repairing the damage done across the UK by post-war industrial farming.
Finishing Plumpton, Alex returned home to begin the winemaking project, with Sam - who grew up nearby - soon joined him as his collaborator. Alex & Sam look after the vines, themselves part of a wider, hollistic, organism that also includes livestock, arable wheat & barley, with sheep grazing in the vineyards through winter.
On the high chalk of the South Downs, the coastal influence is immediately apparent - they are perhaps one of the closest vineyards to the sea in the UK - and work in the winery is as minimal as possible to allow the fruit to speak for itself, they are strictly no additions.
