White Wines

A request for info! ;D

I really like sweet white wines, but have trouble finding sweet ones . . . seems like most of them are dry!  I recently discovered Piesporter Michelsburg and really enjoy it, but would like other options as well.  Does anybody know of some white wines that are as sweet, or sweeter, than the Piesporter?

Thanks!

Lambrini! Lovely light, sweetish, white wine.

I'm definitely not one either!  Just last night David and I had Liebfraumilch with our dinner, and I told him, "It starts out like the Piesporter, but it doesn't finish that way."  Very technical, huh?!  

Thanks for your suggestion, Badger :)  Even the name Lambrini sounds lovely!

Have you tried Reisling?

I've never had Piersporter, so I don't know how the sweetness compares, but Reisling is lovely, light and sweet.

I've gotta go with Badger on this one.  Lambrini is very nice...especially cold!  Lambrini Rose is also nice, a sweet pink wine. :D
