Recommended wine: Chablis, Chardonnay

Chablis and Chardonnay are great choices 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 Francine et Olivier Savary Chablis Vieilles Vignes. It has 4.6 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 33 dollars.

Savary’s Vieilles Vignes bottling is the ultimate introduction to this magical combination: Chardonnay grown in Kimmeridgian limestone and a properly dosed élevage in wood. The electricity and minerality imparted by the soil are balanced by a buttery creaminess that is heavenly.
