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 Domaine Louis Michel et Fils Chablis ( half-bottle). Reviewers quite like it with a 4.4 out of 5 star rating and a price of about 19 dollars per bottle.

Domaine Louis Michel et Fils Chablis ( half-bottle)
This Chablis reveals white fruit notes such as peach, and has a persistent mineral structure. In the mouth, a stony sensation which is so typical of Chablis makes this a round and pure wine.Serve between 53-57°F. This wine should be aired or decanted before tasting.
