75 is long dead:

Winery: Château Lafite Rothschild
Wine: Pauillac 1975
Score: 71
Price: $144
Country: France

Region: Bordeaux

Issue: Nov 30, 1991, WS

A pungent-smelling wine, with vegetal flavors and very little appeal. Could be corky. Another bottle was better, but overripe in character.--Lafite Rothschild vertical.

The 96 is a good one:

Winery: Château Lafite Rothschild
Wine: Pauillac 1996
Score: 96
Cellar Selection
Price: $207
Country: France

Region: Bordeaux

Issue: Jan 31, 1999, WS

Impressively dark in color, with mineral, mint and black currant aromas that hint also of spices and cedar. Full-bodied, with very firm tannins and a silky texture, this top Bordeaux goes on and on on the palate. One of the most solid Lafites in recent history. Best after 2002. (JS)
