You and Innkeeper are going in the right direction, I second the riesling suggestion. I tout Hogue Late Harvest White Riesling ($8), or any other Late Harvest Riesling like Kiona or Terra Blanca when I know someone wants 'sweet' wine. I drink 'em for dessert on a regular basis.

Hogue, Columbia Crest, Chateau Ste. Michelle and Seven Hills all make yummy 'regular' Rieslings as well. Prices are good, CC ~ $6 here, CsM, Hogue and 7 Hills ~ $7-8.

You might also try Quady 'Elektra' Muskat, priced right ~ $8, a dessert wine, it's nicely sweet and very low in alcohol at only 4%, compared to some fortified sweet wines like Port,which run up to ~20% alcohol. But if you want to try some 'ports', I recommend trying some of the Aussie 'stickies' like Hardy's, or Benjamins, Penfolds Reserve, Clocktower. All are economical and delicious.
