Most Piesporters are made from riesling, so you really like riesling. Great place to start. It takes some folks decades to finally come around to riesling.

Some other whites you may enjoy are chenin blanc as in the Vouvray from Loire, and gewurztraminer. All three, including the riesling come in all different styles and degrees of sweetness to allow you to experiment broadly.

For reds you might start with Beaujolais such as a Beaujolais Villages. Other Beaujolais known as "Crus" include Fleurie and Julienas on the lighter side.

Also recommend the books from ShortWiner.
