Is Merlot a good wine?

What reviewers say

“The flavour of this wine changes quite a bit depending on how long it has been open. Initially it seems bright, acid forward and floods the gates with sharp tannins.”

From a top-rated Vivino review for this bottle.

Summary

Aromas of black plums, dark cherries and a touch of oak with flavors of dark berries, toasty oak and vanilla spice. This wine has a nice structure and balance, soft tannins and a long finish.
