Dukes Magpie Hill Cabernet 2022

ray jordan 95 point score for a wine, in a logo

Bold Flavours | Smooth | Excellent Structure

If you love Cabernet with real finesse, this is the one. The Magpie Hill Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon 2022 is Duke’s top Cabernet release from Porongurup, built on cool-climate structure, pristine fruit and a long, polished finish. It’s packed with blackcurrant and bramble fruit, layered with cedar and savoury spice, then pulled tight by fine, silty tannins and a refreshing acid line that keeps it lively rather than heavy.

This is serious Cabernet with a proper Great Southern signature. Powerful, composed and cellar-worthy, yet still a joy to drink now with a decent decant.

Why You Will Love It

  • Premium Porongurup Cabernet with fragrance, structure and length
  • Classic Cabernet flavours: cassis, blackberry, cedar and tobacco
  • Fine, silty tannins that feel polished and persistent
  • 17 months in 100% French oak adds depth and classy shape
  • Awarded 95 points by Wine Companion, one of Australia’s leading wine review sites

Acclaim

  • 95 Points – Winepilot (Ray Jordan)
    “Interestingly this Cabernet is a Barossa clone which contrasts with the Houghton clone in another part of the vineyard. It certainly has created a more robust Cabernet, albeit with the imprint of the cooler climes of the Porongurups. There’s a wild mix of berries evident on the nose with a little oyster shell minerality and light cedar adding another dimension”

Tasting Notes

  • Aromatics: Cassis, blackberry and bramble with cedar, cigarbox, spice and savoury notes like saltbush and preserved plum.
  • Palate: Refined and complete, dark berries and blackcurrant drive the core, with cocoa, subtle anise and a mineral, oyster-shell style savouriness through the middle.
  • Finish: Long, silty and fresh, with tannins that stay fine and measured rather than drying.

Vintage 2022

A cool, wet winter set the season up beautifully, followed by a warm, dry summer. Lower yields delivered concentration, while the cooler Porongurup conditions helped retain natural acidity and perfume. The result is depth with finesse, not bulk.

FAQ 🧐

Is this a big, heavy Cabernet?
It’s powerful, but not heavy. The hallmark is finesse: fine tannins, fresh acidity and a long, clean finish.

Do I need to decant it?
It’s recommended. A decant unlocks the cedar, cassis and savoury complexity and smooths the tannin line.

I've been ordering from Partners in Wine for three years now - from the UK for my sister living in Perth. Each time they've been bang on with my order including on time delivery. Kirk has also helped me select my wines from an extensive list. A very pleasant and friendly company to deal with. I would highly recommend them.
