Recommended wine: Chablis, Chardonnay

Lobster on the menu? Try pairing with Chablis and Chardonnay. Chablis is perfect with lobster, but a chardonny from other regions is bound to hit the spot too.

Domaine Louis Moreau Chablis
Domaine Louis Moreau Chablis
Chablis achieves its highly distinctive mineral character due to its cool northerly climate and its highly calcareous soil. The Domaine Louis Moreau Chablis is fruity and vivid, with floral notes and hints of apple and pear. Bright acidity, with minerality and a palate balanced by roundness and finesse.
