Is Les Hauts de Pontet-Canet Pauillac a good wine?

What reviewers say

“The secondary wine of the famous vineyard owned by the Tesserons. This is the wine from barrels not selected for the growth wine. 16 months in oak and hand picked. Wasn't decanted on tasting December 2014. Ruby colour, tawny on the rims. The wine has aged brilliantly.”

From a top-rated Vivino review for this bottle.

Summary

A colour that’s got great hold. A nose of red fruits and spices with a hint of graphite. On the palate, the wine is very round with a structure of great finesse. Good length and great aromatic persistence with hints of gingerbread on the finish.
