Hey Guys,
Im even newer at wine than cigars.. Im looking for a wine on the sweeter side something for the wine beginner. I've read that the white wines are sweeter than the reds... any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks, Wade

Not always true. It all depends on the varietal. There are plenty of Red varietals that can have a sweet fruity-ness to them as well. Chardonnays tend to be drier and they are a white.
If you're looking for sweet, try Hogue late harvest Riesling. Or any Riesling for that matter as they tend to be a little bit more on the sweet side (but not always). Some Sauvignon Blancs can also have a sweet characteristic to them. You may even opt for a dessert wine.
Hope that helps!
Menage a Trois is a good bottle. They have a white out now. Not sure how new it is, just saw it at the store last time I was grocery shopping.
Might want to try a bottle of Menage a Trois (referred to as a table wine). I wouldn't characterize it as sweet, but fairly good at it's price point... about 8-9 bucks depending on where you look. My wife doesn't like red wines but likes this bottle; one of the few red wines that she will drink with me. She likes more of the sweet wines and therefore, usually sticks with Riesling.
Maybe try a port.
