The All Blacks beat France 14-10 in the second Test at Westpac Stadium in Wellington on Saturday.
Ma'a Nonu scored a try for the All Blacks in the first half, and Stephen Donald kicked two penalties, although he missed two other penalties and a conversion. Luke McAlister kicked one other penalty.
France's Cedric Heymans scored a try down the left wing, beating four defenders after getting the ball in open space from 40 metres out.
Julien Dupuy added the conversion while Dimitri Yachvili slotted a penalty for the visitors, who were seeking to win just their second series against the All Blacks on New Zealand soil.
The match took place in bitterly cold temperatures, southerly winds and freezing rain.
France won the Dave Gallaher Cup for the first time, thanks to their 27-22 win over the All Blacks in Dunedin last week.
