I am looking for a "good" bottle of red wine that is slightly sweet.?

Question

I want a good red wine that is slightly to moderately sweet. I have tried and do not like dry wines. I don't want the wine that is too sweet as it tends to give me migraines. Can someone give me several ideas to try; not opposed to trying a white wine with the same description.

Answer 1

I prefer dry wines, but I've enjoyed semi-sweet wines from the country of Georgia.

Answer 2

Try some African or Chilean wines. This countries have a very hot climate, grape is very sweet and even dry red wines are not so dry as their European "brothers".

Answer 3

Italian Dolce Rosso Marsemino ,Brazilian Cancao Red,Italian Ruffino Classico Ducale Red,Tomasselo Ranier Red,Banfi 2007 Rosa regale ,Falkner Luscious lips Red Wine  2005.

Answer 4

Good red wine is not suppose to be "sweet", it is suppose to be dry (not sweet). Try annie greenspings or boonesfarms if you want sweet.

Answer 5

umm i suppose you try welch's that is partly sweet and exceptionally delicious!...

Answer 6

You may want to try a Shiraz or Shirah. Yellow Tail makes a reasonably priced wine. I've also had a White Merlot that was pretty good. White Merlot is a little darker than a blush but lighter than a red.

Answer 7

I find that the Spanish Tempernillo's (that's a variety, not a brand name) are very good.  Another we like is Hob Nob (that's the brand), and it's a red wine.  To my knowledge, they only have red and a white, so if you got the red, you'd be good to go.  Both are priced in the $12-$15 range if you buy them at your local wine dealer (or grocery store or liquor store).  If you buy a bottle in a restaurant, I find that they're like $7/glass, which seems VERY expensive, when I can buy the entire bottle at home for less!

Good luck!

Answer 8

I like Liebfraumilch, it's a semi-sweet white German wine (easily found Schmitt Söhne makes it) and pretty cheap (I think it's about $8 or $9 a bottle). I also like Reisling. Biltmore Estate makes good wine too. I like their Century (about $16). I haven't yet found a red I like yet.
