If the KY in your handle means you are from KY, you have rather strict laws about buying wine on-line. Since you enjoy Muscodine wine you must be somewhere in the South, and many other states in your region have the same complications as we do here in Maine too.

You should still be able to find good wines in your area. If I were you I would try to find out if your soulmate likes sweet wine or sweet tasting wines. There is a difference. Most wine is dry meaning that all the sugar has been turned to alcohol. Very ofter dry wines can have enough fruit upfront to taste "sweet." Try a Beaujolais Village and see how it goes. If not sweet enough you may have to go back to where you have been which is fine but with less opportunity.

Other wines that are actually sweet are Lambrusco for red, and most other Rieslings, and Chinin Blanc for whites. You might also try visiting local wineries. Most wineries east of the Rocky Mountains produce wine across the whole sweet/dry spectrum.
