Marc I would say open it and see what it tastes like! :) Can't hurt you and you may have a troube finding any info, with out a label. If it were me I would invite some friends over and treat it like Capones tomb! :)

PK, Don't know the producer myself, though 77 was not a bad year. You are looking at a wine that is probably at peak, but you may want to check with the real experts over at: www.fortheloveofport.com They can tell you everything you want to know....

In both cases all I want is a full report on both bottles if you do open them!

Just discovered a bottle of 1977 Cresta Blanca Tinta Port in my father's house. Apparently it was left there by his now deceased uncle. He (that is, my father, not my uncle) ;-) does not drink wine and though I do enjoy port, I'm not sure if I should store this particular bottle for optimal results. Any comments would be appreciated!
Thanks.

Mark I asked my favorite port expert Roy Hersh and he came up with nothing! Bummer, but he did mention that if you went to his forum at www.fortheloveofport.com and posted there his network of port lovers would be able to help you out asap! I think that might be the best course of action! Sorry we couldn't help directly but please let us know if you find your answer there....Cheers,
