Recommended wine: Moscato Dasti, Late Harvest Riesling, Late Harvest Sauvignon Blanc

Moscato d'Asti, Late Harvest Riesling, and Late Harvest Sauvignon Blanc are my top picks for Key Lime Pie. Since key lime pie is fairly tart, you can go with any of these sweet wines to balance it out. One wine you could try is Vietti Cascinetta Moscato d'Asti. It has 4.7 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 18 dollars.

Vietti Cascinetta Moscato d'Asti

Pale sunshine yellow color and slight frizzante, this Moscato d'Asti has intense aromas of peaches, rose petals and ginger. On the palate it is delicately sweet and sparkling with modest acidity, good balance, good complexity and a finish of fresh apricots.Wonderful as an aperitif, perfect accompaniment to Pan-Asian cuisine and lobster as well as pastry, fruit based and creamy desserts and blue cheeses.
