Is Shiraz - Merlot Cape Red a good wine?

What reviewers say

“Meu primeiro africano, surpreendeu: Gosto da Merlot mas a Shiraz deu um toque todo especial ao vinh: Taninos e Acidez na medida certa, senti aroma de especiarias assim que abri a garrafa, na taça senti misto de uvas e amoras, lágrimas quase não aparecem, mas quando vêm, se vão com a mesma rapidez. Sabor persistente por um tempo razoável no paladar. Nao harmonozei com nada mas creio que iria bem com um picadinho de carne e legumes. Cheers 🍷”

From a top-rated Vivino review for this bottle.

Summary

Ruby red wine. Abundant aromas of red berries and soft oak spice to the nose. Medium-bodied, with red berry and ripe fruit flavours that are well-integrated with the very subtle, spicy tannins.
