I absolutely do not agree that Riesling is sweet - in that case you either had cheap Riesling or a speciality as Auslese or Eiswein. Good Riesling is one of the less sweet white wines. And to give away my favourite producer: http://www.bwgtrier.de/
(Not because I am religious, but the bishops of Trier had a century of inquisition to collect the best vineyards from "witches"...)
There are a wide variety of styles of wine made from Riesling. And even some of the sweet ones aren't necessarily cheap or made badly.
