Tasting notes

These less fatty, smaller sardines have been ripened to perfection in their specially selected Spanish olive oil, helped along by floral notes and an extra virgin component. They are characterised by the firm bite of their meat and singular taste. The “royale” boast the highest level of quality control - a paper seal can be found in each tin with the number of the woman who packed the sardines by hand in Calvados, Galicia.

Acid

Acid gives your taste buds a workout and gets them salivating. You’ll know something’s acidic if it's tart or sour. Green, early-harvest grapes, can increase natural acidity in wines. And any vino with high acidity will help you balance foods with everyone’s favourite flavour profiles: sweet, salt and fat.
Tannin

Imagine drinking a cup of black tea that’s been brewed for too long. Difficult, right? That strange, bitter, drying sensation in your mouth is tannins at work. Though they’re near-impossible to drink in tea, we do love them in wine because they balance acidity, add texture and structure. Skins, pips, grape stems, and ageing in wooden barrels all drive tannins in wine.
Body

How does the wine cling to the sides of your wine glass? How heavy does the liquid feel in your mouth? These are some of the ways to describe the body, viscosity or ‘thickness’ of a wine. Full-bodied drops coat more of your mouth, have higher alcohol, more tannins and lower acidity. Lighter-bodied wines have lower alcohol, less tannins, and higher acidity. Sips stocks all of the above. We don’t discriminate. All bodies are beautiful.
Funk

Natural wines are the James Browns of the wine world. They bring the funk. And they’re a little hard to pin down. At times the taste has umami elements. Sometimes it's smoky. Other times it’s like hay bales and barnyards (yes, really). Above all, a funky wine is “unconventional”. When done well, funk can be the plot twist in a wine that’ll make you want to jump and jive.
