Jahrgangssardine 2020 von La Pointe de Penmarc’h und Douarnenez

Im Jahre 1920 in Le Guilvinec, in der Westspitze der Bretagne, wurde die Firma La Pointe de Penmarc’h gegründet. Nicht nur in Le Guilvinec wurden Sardinen gefangen und  verarbeitet, auch in der Bucht von Douarnenez wurde zu dieser Zeit ebenfalls der Fang von Sardinen betrieben.

In both of these places, the rich catches of sardines were immediately processed in the canned fish factories. Even today, La Pointe de Penmarc'h is a well-known and respected name for traditional and highly qualified conservation of annual sardines, as well as sardines, white tuna and mackerel.

Many years ago, when sardines were caught with simple fishing boats and sailboats, they have now replaced a fleet of modern boats.

Knowledgeable information about the vintage sardine

Vintage sardines can mature in the can for years, just like good wine.

At the end of the sardine fishing season and when the sardines have reached the desired size and fat content, they are caught and processed by hand.

With a balanced fatty acid content of omega-3 and -9 , the sardines are preserved in cold pressed olive oil, in artistically switched doses and not too densely squeezed.

The vintage sardines are produced only in small quantities. Lovers, connoisseurs and collectors of specially designed cans hurry to get hold of them every year.

Those who have the patience should continue to leave their sardines in a cool place. The first-class olive oil surrounds the sardines and penetrates the meat, deepening the taste. Every 3 to 6 months it is recommended to turn the cans so that the oil covers the sardines well from all sides. Over time, the sardine meat becomes more grumpy and the taste more intense.

Adapted to your taste and preference, enjoy the sardines young and firm or ripe and grumpy, with a good wine and in a sensual mood.
