Is Pessac-Léognan a good wine?

What reviewers say

“This is good, great even! On the nose - cherry, cassis, black currants, tobacco, vanilla, cloves, oak, coffee, dark chocolate, cigar smoke. Everything one likes in a Bordeaux.”

From a top-rated Vivino review for this bottle.

Summary

The colour is very deep, almost purple. Very fresh nose with lots of aromatic purity, oak is present on the nose but it is well integrated in the fruit. On the palate the wine is very constructed with a more modern smoothness and sensuality. Plenty of volume on the mid-palate with tight-knit but very ripe tannins.
