Birch sap wine

Has anyone reading made birch sap wine? I made some about 12 months ago and bottled it yesterday - and it's really odd!
The recipe was boiling the birch sap with slices of lemon and some sultanas and sugar. The result (after fermenting pretty well) is quite thick and tastes like lemsip!
Is this what it is supposed to be like?

And you're surprised? :eek:
Sorry.
(he points to some plastic cows on the table) are very small; those (pointing at some cows out of the window) are far away...
I suspect your recipe had more lemon that is strictly necessary? And that maybe replacing that with plain Vit C (as a yeast food) would make it less lemony?
