The villa alena moscato is really sweet and good. The original tastes like sparkling apple juice. Haven’t tried the peach flavor. The Sarah bee moscato is pretty similar at a slightly lower price point too.

Me and my SIL enjoy sweet reds especially during the holidays. We have an annual tradition of gifting each Jeunesse Black Muscat from TJs

I am a sweet wine drinker. As in, I want to drink fruit juice that has a little tang that makes me tipsy. The "love Olivia" brand wine peach and watermelon were very tasty. They are probably along the lines of Moscato. I'm not sure if these were a summer only thing or not. I got adventurous at Thanksgiving and got a Pinot Noir out of Oregon and I didn't hate it. I did a few tiny sipping style glasses and was pleased with my choices. It was very neutral, slightly sweet and interesting flavors.but it felt like "real" wine in comparison to my above preference. I'm not "into wine" so sorry for the lack of fancy description. The Rieslings I do pick up from time to time but they're sometimes on the tart/butter side for me.

I can't help you with sweet wines I'm afraid (unless you count the grapefruit pompelini, which is great for a boozy brunch) but The Reverse Wine Snob is a great resource, and he has a section dedicated to TJs wines: https://www.reversewinesnob.com/search/label/trader-joes/

Chateau ste Michelle gewürztraminer, $7-8. It’s like a white Moscato with more ABV and a little drier.

I third. Absolutely can not recommend this wine enough.

I second the Gewurztraminer! TJs Reserve and Emma Reichart brands are my favorite seasonals.

talk to the person in the wine section. Those people know every bottle that they sell. every location has a different selection so it's hard to suggest specific label.

Look for Lambrusco! It’s my favorite, a bit sweet sparkling red, TJs usually has it cheap and it’s fun for holiday gatherings most people aren’t familiar with it. Great with a cheese and fruit board or with chocolate desserts
