Lobster

Recipe: Grilled Split Lobster with Pesto

Try it with: Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, brut sparkling wine

Julia loves: Matanzas Creek Winery’s Sonoma Valley Chardonnay, about $27

Both the lobster and sauce are rich, so go for a well-balanced Chardonnay, or an herbaceous Sauvignon Blanc that marries well with the pesto.
