Recommended wine: Chablis, Chardonnay
Lobster can be paired with Chablis and Chardonnay. Chablis is perfect with lobster, but a chardonny from other regions is bound to hit the spot too. The Louis Jadot Chablis Les Clos Grand Cru with a 4.9 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 70 dollars per bottle.
Louis Jadot Chablis Les Clos Grand Cru
7 "climats" can be called Grand Cru in Chablis : Preuses, Bougros, Les Clos, Grenouilles, Blanchot, Valmur and Vaudésir. Those vineyards are all situated on the right side of Le Serein river, on the hill. This situation gives a strong and full-bodied character to the wine.Star bright with a silvery rim. This wine is derived from grapes grown in a climat oriented toward the south and south-west located within Chablis's largest Grand Cru, Les Clos. It offers a very ripe nose of yellow-fleshed stone fruits, particularly peaches, with a hint of apricot. This is a complex wine with generosity and plenty of ripe fruit, good mouthfeel and a glorious finish.
