Gooseberry wine weird taste

[SteBeardface]

Hi guys, I had a crack at making some gooseberry wine with my mother-in-law's harvest this year. I used the recipe on this link:

https://homebrewanswers.com/gooseberry-wine-recipe/

It seemed to go quite smoothly, got a lovely clear product after a couple months of aging. I went to bottle and had a taste (as you do!) and found it smelt and tasted a little too... earthy/bitter, if that's the right word to use. It's like the flavour of the skins has overtaken the rest of the fresh fruitiness I was hoping to achieve.

Will this disappear with age or is there something I could add to reduce the earthiness/bitterness?

Well its allready had a couple of months so who knows ?????

Goosegogs are known as the hairy grape,When it comes to wine.

It sounds to me like a classic "Give it more time".

Country wines dont mature like kits and can take years to come right
