Looking for sweet wine

I recently started drinking/appreciating wine, and the first one I tried was a California Gewurtztraminer - I can't recall the winery, but it was actually called a "New Gewurtz," so that might help. They're pretty sweet, light and a little spicy. It turned out to be a lovely introduction to wine, and I'm now fully enjoying the more fuller-bodied reds!

The other thing I heard recently at a "Wines 101" class I took (they're very fun, BTW, if you have access to them!) was that sparkling wines shouldn't be overlooked, and the good ones can be very sweet and light.

I've also been told (but haven't confirmed by tasting yet) that Muscats and Late Harvest Reislings are also sweeter.

Good luck! [img]http://www.wines.com/ubb2/smile.gif[/img]
