Assuming the observer is in the North, then the southern hemisphere would be tilted towards the sun during the Winter Solstice in December.

However, for observers in the Southern Hemisphere, the Winter Solstice would occur in June, and the northern hemisphere would be tilted towards the sun.

There are two solstices in a year. In June, the solstice is the winter solstice for the southern hemisphere and the summer solstice for the northern hemisphere. The northern hemisphere is tilted towards the sun then. In December, the solstice is the winter solstice for the northern hemisphere and the summer solstice for the southern hemisphere. The southern hemisphere is tilted towards the sun then.
