Hey,
My mother likes sweeter style wines and loves bubbly, so recently I brought her a split (half-bottle) of Veuve Cliquot champagne Demi-Sec.
The words Demi-Sec mean half-dry.
it's the sweetest style of true champagne that i've come across.
It's not super-sweet by any meant, but it's got plenty of sugar--it's absolutely delicious and i think attractive to any pallate.
the split was around $25-$30, so you'd pay $40-$50 for a full bottle. It's really elegant stuff, and I wouldn't hesitate to bring it out for a special occassion.
Also, Veuve is all over, so any decent liquor store would be able to special order the demi-sec for you pretty darn quick. Just make sure it says demi-sec. it'll have a white label, as opposed to the orange label the brut (dry) has...

Good luck!
