See if one of your local wine stores does wine tastings. Finding what you like is more important than learning what others tell you you should like. We have a mega liquor store here that does monthly tastings with the proceeds going to charity. They pick a them (region or varietal) and have their distributors set up tables - usually 15-20 tables with 8-10 wines per table. It’s a great way to try things side by side.
