NBBakke, welcome.

Muscat, Sauternes, late-harvest Riesling, late-harvest Gewürztraminer and Vin Santo for the fruit tarts with the same plus tawny and ruby ports with the cheesecake. These are all rich wines and the ports are fortified so the consumption will be much less than table wine consumption. The "sampling factor" can waste wine more than actual consumption so small pours are in order. Depending on how many wines are offered, I would say 1-oz pours would be fine for a desert tasting party and your guests could ask for more if they liked a particular wine.
