I'm commuting to work with this classic Japanese bike. But now im planning to buy my first bike for long travels, so wanted to get your thoughts on this gravel bike.

Also, would S size bike work fine for an XS size guy? The site suggests XS for 162-ish cm, but its out of stock.

Not sure if it's only in our country but this gravel bike could be phasing out soon. I asked Decathlon and they said may not restock this and will move forward with a new product (no ETA).

It's already under different name in my country. You will find pretty much the same bike with Van Risel name. So don't worry they just renamed it.
