Is Hécula Monastrell a good wine?

What reviewers say

“Très belle robe d'une belle intensité, bourgogne et bien texturée. Son nez est très complexe. Il sent la chaire de cerises mûres, le bois, la terre, le cumin, la fumée et un peu le cuir.”

From a top-rated Vivino review for this bottle.

Summary

Deep purple colour with rich elegant aromas of blueberries, black ripe raspberries and liquorice with a subtle touch of white flowers on the background and a chalky character. Full-bodied, with an inviting richness and soft fruitiness which is not at all covered by its well integrated wooden notes in an extremely well-balanced red.
