Red Wine

[New2Wines_2008]

Good evening everyone, I'm new to this forum so forgive me if I've posted in the wrong section.

I need advice on a good red wine. I went to the doctor yesterday and he said he wanted me to start drinking a glass of red wine every night. I picked up a Chianti last night and could barely drink it. I'm not a big drinker to begin with, if I do drink I'll a dessert wine after dinner.

Any suggestion on a decent red wine that isn't...I believe the correct term would be dry (bitter) would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
