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. The Samuel Billaud Chablis Premier Cru Les Vaillons Vieilles Vignes with a 4.7 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 32 dollars per bottle.
