I missed the beginning of the thread, but Annurca is listed in Crawford's
Directory of Apple Cultivars.
He describes it as 'small, dark red, sweet, crisp, flavour fruity, moderate
vigour, blooms Day 11, ripens late October, stores until January, origin
Italy.'
The Book of Apples by Morgan and Richards says 'Received 1973. Grown
commercially
to a small extent in Italy'.
I think the 'received' means at the National Apple Collection at Brogdale,
Kent,
England.

: "Annurca grown commercially in the Campania region of Italy since Roman
: times accounted for 90% of production until the 1960s when it fell to 20%,
: due to a labour intensive growing and harvesting technique. However it is
: now back to 70% of the acreage due to new growing techniques and a
: recognition of its supreme flavour which gives it a 30% premium in price.
