Default Strawberry wine question

At the local store they have canned strawberrys is a light syrup. Would

Well, I will say, so far, I have tried to make strawberry wine twice with
fresh berries. I am wholly unimpressed with both the flavor profile (tastes
funky for some reason) and the color (pale, brownish red). I suspect canned
(cooked and color-set, flavor-set) berries would make a more fruity
strawberry pie-like wine that would probably be an improvement over the
fresh berries. Anyone else with more experience that can offer some comments
and advice?
