I was curious what sweet red wines do you suggest because alot of the ones I see are usually dry.

Hi Chas and welcome to the Wine Board. Are you talking about table wines or dessert wines? For table wines there are Italian Lambruscos, preferably other than Reunite. For American wines, most wineries east of the Rocky Mts make both dry and off dry, and sometimes real sweet red wines. Check out www.mountpleasant.com
Red dessert wines are easier to come by. First, there is Port. The French make a great sweetie called Banyuls. Several California wineries make the so-called "Late Harvest" wines including that made from zinfandel, merlot, and cabernet.
