Recommended wine: Chablis, Chardonnay

Chablis and Chardonnay are my top picks for Lobster. Chablis is perfect with lobster, but a chardonny from other regions is bound to hit the spot too. One wine you could try is Domaine Louis Michel et Fils Chablis ( half-bottle). It has 4.4 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 19 dollars.
