Anybody know a good dessert wine and how much?

[Scoop]

You could also go for a Muscat-based dessert wine (Beaumes de Venise is one to look for); Jaboulet markets one for around $16.99 per (750 ml) bottle. Nice refreshing sweetness with good apricot and orange peel notes. Meant to drink young. (It's technically a "Vin Doux Natural", meaning spirit was added to arrest the fermentation process and to trap residual sugar.)

Chenin Blanc-based dessert wines from the Loire Valley are also good source of value (Quart de Chaumes, Bonnezeaux, Coteaux de Saumur and Vouvray Molleaux) as is a similar (and more reasonably-priced) cousin appellation to Sauternes in the Bordeaux region: Monbazillac. All of these depend on (and benefit from) botrytis ("noble rot") for their intense sweetness and flavors.

There's a big world of dessert wines out there. In the end, it depends on what's for dessert!
