Recommended wine: Chardonnay, Riesling, Pinot Grigio

Crab works really well with Chardonnay, Riesling, and Pinot Grigio. Chilled crab tastes great with pinot grigio. Warm crab (especially with butter) can be matched with a buttery Chardonnay or a crisp fruity Riesling. One wine you could try is Pindar Peacock Chardonnay. It has 4 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 10 dollars.

Crisp, lively with hints of pear and apple, subtle notes of vanilla from oak aging. A great wine at a great price. Superb withy fish, veal, and cheeses. The ultimate food wine.
