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.

Reply. Beneath the text-entry box is a button saying “Upload attachment”. Start there.
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.

What Port will pair best with popcorn as we watch the war ensue?

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.
