Tomato's that over winter well...

I've read about Burpee's Long Keeper tomatoes

I was wondering what other varieties keep exceptionally well over the winter?

I have an unfinished basement i can store them in that stays around 45% humidity and 65 degrees. I've read about pulling my plants at the end of the season and hanging them with the green tom's still on, I've yet to do it. I've never planted a second crop of tomato's but could. I usually have my beds full by then and my tomato's generally countinue to produce new tomato's through October.

I really know very little about food storage except refrigeration, and then i probably refrigerate things i shouldn't. Had some celery turn rubbery really quick the other day.

Any thought's would be appreciated!
