Recommended wine: Chablis, Chardonnay

Lobster works really well with Chablis and Chardonnay. Chablis is perfect with lobster, but a chardonny from other regions is bound to hit the spot too. You could try Louis Jadot Chablis Vaudesir Grand Cru. Reviewers quite like it with a 4.1 out of 5 star rating and a price of about 160 dollars per bottle.
