Riesling is a nice sweet wine. You can also look for labels that say Muscat or Muscato..along those lines. Also try walking into a good wine shop and asking them...every year, different countries excel in bottling exceptional sweet/dessert wines. Some have a good rainfall and so it the grapes become very sweet. I heard that French 2005 is awesome. I also was recommended a German Riesling and purchased it, although I haven't tasted it yet. Good luck, happy drinking =)

If you wished you could try a sweet sparkling wine such as an Asti Spumante for something light. Serve well chilled. The other wines that were suggested were great ideas also. The difference here would be that this one is 'sparkling' (bubbly).

Ice Wines make great dessert wines, try Inniskillin Vidal Icewine.

Try Manechevitz' Blackberry wine. Very sweet, very tasteful. Best on ice.

I would definitely go with a port wine. It is perfect for after dinner and I hear is good with semi sweet chocolate. It is sweet but strong. I have had it with ice cream and it is very good.

Any icewine from Canada is good but we do have one winery in Ontario that makes only icewine - Royal DeMaria. One of the other Ontario wineries (Pillitteri Estates) makes a wide variety of icewines including the first ever Shiraz Icewine. I've put links to both of their sites below.
If you don't want an icewine, try a port

Go with a Port, I recommend the Quinta Du Noval Tawny 20 year port.

I like the Late Harvest Sauvignon Blanc Morandé, very good dessert wine.
For Port you can go for the Dow's line, Graham's or Woodbridge.

Gamay Rouge from V.Sattui winery in St. Helena, CA. You serve it chilled. It's sweet but refreshing, and it's a really pretty clear, bright red. You can order it online at their website. Splurge and get a case. Trust me.

Adding to the good answers of Port, Ice, and Muscadet, try a Moscato d'Asti also. Rieslings and Gewurtz and nice, light whites also.
