Recommended wine: Chardonnay, Riesling, Pinot Grigio

Crab can be paired 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 Beaulieu Vineyard Carneros Chardonnay. It has 4.4 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 22 dollars.

Beaulieu Vineyard Carneros Chardonnay

Fine yellow-green gold color. The opulent, forward fruit strongly manifests itself with rich, pear-honey and vanilla extract aromas, with overtones of fresh herbs and marzipan. Very full, lush flavors reveal integrated, typically Carneros, ripe apple and peachy fruit combined with the spicy vanilla-cinnamon elements of oak. The finish is creamy, round, and toasty, neither "charry" nor resiny, the oak finely balanced the powerful fruit. This is a luxuriously textured, high extract wine; a great foil for rich fish dishes, savory chicken, or a veal roast.
