Chardonnay out of those choices. However I love Caymus Conundrum with crab or lobster.
It's a blend that usually contains these varietals
sauvignon blanc, sémillon, chardonnay, viognier and muscat canelli .

Blended wines are under appreciated by most people. I work in a wine store and a lot of people think blends are bad wines. When I suggest one the response is often
"oh no, not a blend I want a nice ______"
Like a blend can't be good.

A Chateauneuf-du-pape contain up to 13 varietals.

I won't give you names but I will give you general appellations.

Assuming you are referring to North Atlantic lobster (with the claws) and not rock lobsters...

Of the wines you mention I would choose a chardonnay, BUT NOT A CALIFORNIA OR AUSTRALIAN CHARDONNAY!!!!!!!! (too "big" for lobster). I would pick a chardonnay from Chablis or the lower Burgundy (Pouilly Fuisse or Macon Blanc, etc) in France or from the Alto Adiage in Italy or from the North Fork of Long Island, USA.

But probably I would not choose a chardonnay at all. Actually, for plain boiled or steamed New England lobster you can't match it much better than with a locally grown young vidal blanc. My most likely choice would be one from Sakonnet Vineyards in Rhode Island.

I prefer a sauvignon blanc, the reisling is too sweet and the chardonnay is too strong, the sauvignon blanc is a perfect balance. Try Barefoot

St Supre Chardonnay is especially delicious because the wine has a very buttery taste and consistency, which pairs wonderfully with lobster.

Shrimp, lobster, crab. Not a fish person. Whitefish is good because it has a light sweet flavor, but it's hard to find.
