Almost every wine doesn't taste bitter, but the most easy taste to distinguish and recognize are the tannines in the wine, which form the redness in the wine, but taste very bitter at the same time. The best thing you can do is keeping at it and always try to distinguish more smells and flavors. Practice when eating lots of different styles of food, how they smell, how they really taste. When you try enough really tasting and smelling, eventually, the bitterness will still be part of the wine, but you can distinguish other tastes more easily. You then just give the bitterness a different place in the entire taste spectrum.
And cheap wine is often that which is distilled close to the bottom of the wine mixture. It's dirt cheap, makes you drunk just as easily, but tasted very bitter. Good wine comes at a price.

Good red wine comes at a price. Yet, there are some out there that are affordable. What your probably talking about is the very first sip of red wine. It generally feels like is dries the moisture from your mouth. For most people this is normal. Its the after taste you will notice the most and want to receive the boast of flavors from.
Also, i recommend reading up on wines first before just buying them based on no knowledge and price tags. European wines follow very old bottling laws. To be called "RESERVE" in Italy, Spain, or France it must be reserved for 2 years and Grand Reserves for at least 5 years. In the "Americas" these same bottling principles are not followed. Therefore you may be buying a Californian "reserve" that is just the grape that was used, not the time is was in the cask and bottle.
You will need to drink quite a bit of differnet kinds of wine to find the one you like. I for one am not a wine connoisseur, but i know some. And they all tell me that the only thing to look for in any wine, is the one that tastes the best to you. Forget the snobs and the stuck up waiters, drink it because you like it. It doesnt matter what the price tag is.

Try an Oregon Pinot Noir, Willamette Valley or a Nouveux Beaujolais (French, young wine released every year around Thanksgiving)

I don't really like wine much but I did find this one - Bully Hill Love my Goat. It is on the sweeter side of wine (some would say it is really sweet) but if you don't like the bitter - go for sweet wine.

Try Pinot Noir, it has less tannins than some of the heavier reds like Cabernet Sauvignon

I'd recommend Italian Dolcetto di Alba or Aglianico. US mmmm pinot noir from Oregon or NY. That should get you started.

I don't know what you have tried that you consider bitter but... try a Beaujolais. It is a fruity flavor and not full bodied.
