help me choose a sweet wine?

kirkland moscato d asti was highly reviewed at the reverse wine snob so i got one but before opening, i saw it on tastings.com and it said that it is off dry. i dont think i will like it because i like sweet wines.

so far i have enjoyed kedem kiddush, kedem cream white, manischewitz, and asti spumante

i did not like the ice wine from trader joes nor the port. sad when a wine does not work out for me. barefoot moscato was drinkable but would not buy again.

i read about quady essensia orange muscat and it sounds good. looks like they have a line of sweet stuff. i wouldnt know where to start there.

any other recommendations are very welcome

also, are these naturally sweet or do they have added sugar?
i read that some add sulfur to arrest fermentation and keep it sweet. what if i want to avoid added sulfur?
i read that there are nice sweet reislings and madeiras and they last longer after being opened with some even improving in taste after some time. i am interested in those also because I do not drink a lot at a time.
i’m also interested in aging some wine to share with my daughter later when she is older and i read that sweet wines age well - does this mean it’s okay to just keep in the pantry? i do not own a wine cellar but wondering if it is possible with sweet wine.
