Five bottles of Niepoort’s port, vintage 1977
750 ml.
vintage: 1977, bottled in 1979
Imported by Bonsal Seggerman & Co., Locust Valley, NY
Gift of a friend in 1988. (We drank one bottle then. :- )
Stored on its side in a wine cellar at 50 - 60 F since 1988. Wine is half way up the neck of the bottle (about 3/4 inch from the cork). In excellent condition.
It's in Seattle, Washington
I have a photo, but can't figure out how to attach it.

- I have asked my friend, in whose wine cellar this port is stored, to take a photo of the level of the wine in the bottle.

I’m in London, so can’t buy your bottles, but we have a few people in Washington state, one of whom will doubtless reply within a few days. But you might note that WineConsigners has Ni77 at $115 a bottle. Vendors typically achieve half retail, in this case being $57½ per bottle.

OMG, someone selling who's not in the UK? I must be dreaming.
Hopefully things work out for Brad. This fully mature VP drinking nicely at the moment.

I believe we are currently in an actual bidding war. Emails sent and received with the seller. I'm happy to post the result when it comes.
