Too many flavors & no clue!!!

[curlyq]

I am a TRUE wine novice in need of desperate help!!! I just want to find a place or someone that can educate me on what is sweet and what wines are the dry wines. I have figured out at this point that dry=bitter. So I just want to figure out the flavors, so when I go to the Wine Bar, I can order & sound inteligent... Please help me out!!! or at least tell me where to go for help.
