Oysters naturally combine best with tight, not too heavy white wines.
The Picpoul de Pinet from the French Languedoc and the Muscadet from the Loire are classic combinations with oysters. Chablis is also called 'oyster water', but we think the first two options are a better wine-food combination. Less obvious but great combinations: Aligoté from Burgundy or a tight white mountain wine from the French Savoie. And if you want to surprise everyone with your wine-food combination, choose a tight, dry Gewürztraminer.
