Welcome to the board. You basically have two choices: a white Zinfandel, which is very inexpensive ($6-$10); and a Sauternes, which is very expensive (usually at least $20 for a half-bottle). Give the white Zin a try.

Riesling and Chenin Blanc are usually off dry or sweet so long as it doesn't say "dry" on the label.

Demi-sec Vouvray, to amplify on IK's answer. It's made from Chenin Blanc,and it's wonderful with a few years, or more, on it.

You can also go to the area called Learn about Wines", then click on "FAQ" and they will have a section on new to wine people looking for sweet wines. The link is also here.

Still another white wine to try is Muscat or Moscati.
