    Default Dying father-Selling wine collection

    Hi everyone,
    My father is dying of brain cancer and I am trying to sell his collection of wine. The collection of wine consists of about 100-150 bottles mumm champagne, 1980 Dom perignon, etc etc. Some ranging from 5 to 40 years old. They were all stored in a dark room(about 75-78 degress) on their sides
    Can anyone tell me how to go about selling?
    Should I try to sell individually or as a whole set?
    Sorry if this has been asked before, any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks!

    There has to be a wine broker or 50 out near you. Try them. Might help.

    Thanks for the suggestion.
    I will work on the list here progressively.
    Wondering if I should drink the DP? Is 1980 a good year? Or too old?
