Greenish yellow skin ripening to golden yellow with occasional russet patches. Cream coloured flesh. Crisp and juicy, with a very sweet refreshing taste when first picked. Excellent keeping qualities but tending to lose some texture and flavour in storage. Keeps its shape when cooked and is the most commonly used apple for pastries in France.
