Chantecler is an excellent French apple for growers seeking sweetness, aroma and versatility. The flesh is crisp and juicy at harvest, becoming softer and more aromatic after several weeks in storage. It is also particularly good for cooking. Ripening is late, so the fruit needs sufficient autumn warmth and should not be picked too early.
