Is Merlot a good wine?

What reviewers say

“No pretense, approachable, easy-going, but same time almost classic Merlot. Smell is lovely mixture of mocca, vanilla and sweet tabbaco. Wine is smooth without rough corners. Medium-bodied, velvety and juicy. Plum, red cherry with some spicy finish.”

From a top-rated Vivino review for this bottle.

Summary

The bouquet of this Merlot is complex with violets, sweet plums, rosemary, and vanilla bean. On the palate, the wine is velvety and soft in texture, with flavors of juicy plums, blackberries, and Bing cherries, and a long cocoa powder finish and fine tannins.
