I think that you may want to give a GERMAN Riesling another try as many rieslings are often on the dryer side. Take a look again at wineguruchgo answer and you will find two key phrases

Riesling Spatlese
Riesling Auslese

These will definitely be on the sweeter side especially if you look for the 2003 release.

Otherwise sweet wines that you should look for are Canadian Icewines that come in half bottles. My female friends who do not like wine always end up liking these. They are VERY SWEET with very little to none alcohol aftertaste. Pricey and hard to find, they are nonetheless worthwhile to search for. The other wine is what they call a late harvest Riesling or Vidal. These will be less sweet compared to the icewines but still super sweet compared to dry wines.

Also you can try Sauternes or muscadelle dessert wines.......maybe that is the general classification to look for dessert wines, then start from there. Good luck!
