Golden chalice

New Zealand Listener

August 2-8, 2025

A popular Wairau Valley producer took bottomless inspiration from a nearby lake.

- MICHAEL COOPER

Lake Chalice's first Marlborough wines, grown at a gravelly Rapaura site in the Wairau Valley, flowed in 1992. Poring over maps in search of a brand name, founders Phil Binnie and Chris Gambitsis didn't hesitate when they spied Lake Chalice – meaning goblet, or wine cup – 40km away in the Richmond Range.

In 2016, Lake Chalice's vineyards and brand were bought by Marlborough's largest family-owned wine producer, Saint Clair. The current releases deliver excellent quality and value.
