I suggest a decent Gamay Beaujolais. It's sweet, it fruity, and it's red. After that, when you can afford it, go for Ports.
Unfortunately, decent ones are all in the 10 to 20 US dollar level.
If you like Zins, Deaver Winery in California makes the best Zinfandel Ports on Earth. Highly recommended.
Combine ports with dark chocolate for fun. And if you ever get into a hearty tasty dry wine, just grab a chunk of extra sharp cheddar cheese to take away the bite. (The cheese trick works on cheap burgundy, too.)
These combos, with a loaf of French bread in the countryside, make for cheap and successful dating ideas, incidentally.

I am also a college student that was looking for an alternative to liquor and beer, but wine is just gross most of the time. I found something perfect: its
Andre is the brand name
Spumante California Sparkling Wine
Green bottle with white foil wrapped around the top....
here it costs only 4.61 a bottle.
It tastes like sprite w/ apple juice, it is so good.
Try it dude

My favorite sweet white wine is called Canai. It's about $10 a bottle. Have you ever tried Pino Grigio it's a nice white wine too. I also like a German sweet Riesling I can not remember the name of it but, it comes in a blue bottle and has a picture of the sun on it.

Riunite Lambrusco...a sweet red wine...tastes like grape juice! Yummmmy!
The people I know who aren't wine drinkers, myself included, do make the exception with Lambrusco. If you want to just try a glass before buying a bottle (although a bottle at any market is inexpensive), it is available at Olive Garden.
PS~the sangria at Olive Garden is also quite deelish!

You might like to try a bottle of Charles Krug's "Chateau La Salle". This is a sweet very fruity white wine. It always reminds me of giant lady finger grapes. Got introduced to it about 35 years ago, it's still a classic!

while a wine is going by way of fermentation, the grape's organic sugars are converted to alcohol by way of yeast. while a winemaker stops the fermentation technique short, the multiple wine's sugar keeps to be unconverted into alcohol and makes up the wine's residual sugar (RS) content textile. that's this residual sugar that provides up the candy ingredient in a wine. we are able to in easy terms style 4 aspects: candy, salty, bitter and bitter, yet we are able to scent 1000's of unique aromas. that's the interaction between our tastebuds and our olfactory applications that enable us to perceive such form in style.

Try moscato (sutter home's a cheap and tasteful brand) or riesling. Moscato's the sweetest, but I like the taste of riesling better. They're both realy good!

Try Port or Tawny Port. They're sweet and have a higher alcohol content.
