Dry,Semi,Sweet!

[hotwine]

Those are known as "varietals", meaning they're made from particular varieties of grapes. Any grape can be made in any style the vintner chooses, from dry to sweet, depending on the quantity of residual sugar remaining when fermentation is shut down (either naturally or artificially). For a sweet, cheap white wine, try a white Zinfandel, usually available for about $4. For a cheap dry white, try Kendall-Jackson Sauvignon Blanc, about $8. Look under "Best Buys" on this board for more examples of inexpensive wines (although you'll find some listed there that don't exactly fit the category of "cheap").
