Is Thorn Merlot a good wine?

What reviewers say

“Merlot with Malbec and Syrah. Deep garnet with a dark ruby rim. The nose is rich and layered, offering a blend of ripe blackberries, plums, and black cherries. Then notes of vanilla, baking spice, and a touch of cedar. On the full-bodied palate with a lush, velvety texture.”

From a top-rated Vivino review for this bottle.

Summary

Earthy aromas open up into cocoa, blackberry, cedar, and anise. The entry is smooth with flavors of cherry, chocolate, vanilla, and a mild toastiness. The finish is long with balanced acidity.
