Hi Amy, and welcome to the Wine Board. Dry in wine is not the opposite of wet. Dry means no residual sugar. Sweetness can still be achieved in a dry wine with strong fruit flavors.

For Champagne, explore our thread with that title. Lots of good recommendations there, specially since we just passed a bubbly holiday.

For white wine try riesling. That from Alsace will be dry, and you may get to it. In the meantime look for any American or German Riesling that does not say dry or troken on the label.

For red wine try Beaujolais. Right now you can get 2001 Beaujolais Nouveau. After this month they will begin to fade, and you can move up to regular Beaujolais.
