REINE DES REINETTE
Origin: France
Season: October - March
Reine des Reinette Apples are a classic French heritage variety, prized for their distinctive flavour and versatility. These medium-sized apples boast a golden-yellow skin with a red blush and offer a perfect balance of sweetness and acidity.
These apples stand out for their complex flavour profile, combining notes of honey, nuts, and a subtle hint of anise. Their firm, crisp texture makes them excellent for both fresh eating and cooking, maintaining their shape well when baked.
Enjoy fresh as a snack, slice into salads, or use in baking for tarts, pies, and compotes. They're particularly well-suited for the classic French dessert, Tarte Tatin.
Producer: Vassout is a family-owned orchard located in the Loire Valley, France. With generations of experience, they specialise in cultivating traditional French apple varieties using sustainable farming practices. Their commitment to quality ensures each apple reaches its full flavour potential.
