La Victoire
Dessert
La Victoire is a handsome dessert apple from the Fameuse group, likely a seedling of Fameuse but with better keeping qualities. The flesh is firm, juicy, and aromatic with a mild subacid flavor reminiscent of McIntosh. It is a winter apple best suited to northern and elevated regions due to its hardiness, though it remains practically unknown in New York.
