COVER STORY

The March 2023 cover features Dermot Sugrue, owner of Sugrue South Downs, with his dog, Tara. We took several shots of Dermot and his partner Ana at the winery in Madehurst, but we also wanted an outside location too, that would highlight the brand’s association with the Downs. We found the ideal spot a few hundred yards down the lane at The Pig in the South Downs hotel. Dermot also manages The Pig’s vineyard, which can be seen in the background of the cover photo.

Other cover contenders included Lucy Bubb (Managing Director of William Sugg & Co in Horsham), Rory Payne at Cocoa Loco in West Grinstead and artist Sofia Tuominen at her Horsham studio.
