Choosing an apple tree

I'd agree about Sunset. But describing Winston as Cox like doesn't
resonate with me! I think I have a Winston (on M25) - it was labelled as
that - and I've been disappointed with the fruit. Fruit are smallish, dark
red, ripen late, are good keepers and in my book are only edible in
jan/feb from store. But I wouldn't call the taste cox-like.
