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

Key Lime Pie works really well with Moscato d'Asti, Late Harvest Riesling, and Late Harvest Sauvignon Blanc. 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 Fizz 56 Moscato d'Asti. It has 4.9 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 17 dollars.
