lol !

I do know of a wine that you would love (given the sweet tooth --tongue ? -g)

German wines:

germanwine.de

Try most of the rieslings (very light and sweet and in its generic form quite inexpensive) the regions of: Mosel Ruwer Saar, the Rheingau, the Rheinhessen or many others in Germany

germanwine.de

germanwine.de

germanwine.de

..and yes, there is such a thing as ice-wine (eiss-wein) but it is NOT what you are thinking.

germanwine.de

Putting ice in wine is, in my religion, capital sin with no pardon to hope for -ggg

Many of the California and Washington state rieslings are as just as good and surprisingly... many of the German ones will be less expensive, it depends where you buy them and what vineyard it comes from (and of course vintage)..

I could direct you to far better wines (dessert wines)... but these do require an acquired taste and they are NOT inexpensive; in general.... Germany: The trockenberenauslesse (auslesse, berenauslesse and so on) France: The Sauternes and Barsac regions of Bordeaux (south of France)

The absolute king of all dessert wines is Chateu d'Yquem (in Sauternes) but THAT is an EXPENSIVE wine. If interested... reading on how the wine came to be and how it is processed is very unique....

Only the wines of red Burgundy (DRC) and perhaps Chateau Petrus (red Bordeaux) would be even more expensive. and do not apply to you as you said you only like whites.

As for Vodkas.... :( I am a complete neophyte when it comes to hard liquor... to which my body does not fare well when exposed to it -gg... with the exception of single malt Scotch where, I do not know much other than what I like...
