How much are you asking? PM if you want to sell.
These wines would be a blast to drink. Ideally with somebody else who enjoys wine.
If I "found" these in my cellar I would immediately arrange a tasting with my fellow wino’s of all of the ‘70’s vintage. They are likely a bit tired, but very interesting nonetheless. During the same event: For aperitif have the ’92 Dom.; dessert the ’90 D’Yquem. Your friends will love you for that tasting!
The ’93 Grange is about at its peak, but should drink great for a few more years.
Hold the ’95 Lafite for another 10 years – or more. It is a great wine for a special occasion.
One final note: The '76 really needs to have the producer identified to be certain what you have - should have wording something like:
Domaine de la Romanée-Conti (that would be really nice).
