These sardines were made the old-fashioned way during the 2021 fishing season and canned in Douarnenez. They are only now on the market, already slightly candied and definitely a treat for all fans of high-quality canned fish!

If you can control yourself, you are welcome to store the sardines for a few more years. Like good wine, vintage sardines mature over the years and become even more tender and fine.

Only available in limited quantities!

This beautiful tin is the result of a collaboration with Breton artist Fañch Moal.
Fañch Moal is an artist, painter, sculptor and was born in 1948 in Pont-Croix, Finistère.

Manufacturer: La Pointe de Penmarc'h

La Pointe de Penmarc'h was founded in 1920 in Le Guilvinec, a Bigouden fishing port on the western tip of Brittany. At that time, the fleet consisted of more than a hundred fishing boats, which brought their rich catch to the fish auction hall in the harbor every day.
Just a few steps away, the fish – sardines, albacore tuna and mackerel – were canned at the Conserverie as soon as the boats arrived.

Today Pointe de Penmarc'h continues this tradition of high quality canning. The Conserverie sees itself as an ambassador for the products of the terroir and has made it its highest goal to always offer top products with the authentic taste of the region, for which it cooperates with the traditional fishermen.

Douarnenez

At the very end of Brittany is the beautiful bay of Douarnenez with its fishing port, which has always been known for sardine fishing. It is very close by the fish cannery that has been offering a wide variety of canned fish since 1920.
If the boats used to be operated with sails, today they are modern boats that nevertheless continue to practice selective and respectful fishing.

The vintage sardine

Like fine wine, these sardines only get better with age.
They are caught at the end of the season when they are the perfect size and the perfect balance of fat, omega 3 and 9 fatty acids. They are freshly caught and processed by hand and not too tightly packed in first-class cold-pressed olive oil.
The vintage sardines are produced in small quantities every year in specially designed, decoratively designed special series and are highly coveted by collectors and gourmets.

For best results, store vintage cans in a cool place and turn them over every 3 to 6 months. This allows the oil to circulate better and permeate the fish from all sides, resulting in a wonderful combination of oil and fish over time. The longer they mature, the tenderer the meat becomes.
Whether you prefer your vintage sardine young and firm or ripe and tender is up to you and is purely a matter of taste.

Details

Even the ancient Romans valued sardines and ate them salted, marinated or smoked. To this day, the sardine is and will remain a high-quality product if the quality and production methods are right.

Thanks to their short lifespan, they have absorbed very few pollutants from the sea and have a high proportion of omega-3 fatty acids, vitamins and trace elements. 100g of sardines (about 8 fish) contain 40% of the recommended daily dose of calcium and 100% of the vitamin D necessary to absorb the trace elements. In order for the human body to be able to absorb all of these valuable nutrients, it is essential that the sardine is preserved in high-quality olive oil, because only this oil allows the human body to break it down and metabolize it.

For the sake of enjoyment, however, you should definitely not do without the many other great creations from the incomparably rich range of flavors of canned sardines: sardines in a fruity sauce, in white wine, in butter, with water and lemon... try it out!
