Classic and satisfying, these sardines are packed in a bright tomato sauce that balances sweetness, acidity and savoury depth. The sauce softens the richness of the fish while still allowing the sardines’ full flavour to shine through. Comforting without feeling heavy, this is an easy everyday tin with plenty of versatility.
 
Excellent on toasted sourdough rubbed with garlic, or warmed gently and served over rice with olives and herbs. Pair with a youthful Tempranillo; alternatively, an Australian Sangiovese makes a lovely companion to the tomato base.
