Default Pear Wine Question

Last spring or early summer I bought 20-25 pounds of *really ripe* pears.
I squished them up and followed a recipe for pear wine.
I followed the steps and racked it into a carboy.
This stuff has been sitting in the carboy for several months now,
and it's really terrible. It has a kind of a bitter/sour taste, certainly
nobody would enjoy drinking it.

So... do I toss it out, or are there any ideas out there about how
I may rescue it. The good news is that I don't have a lot of money
invested in it - I got the pears for $3.00.

Thanks for any ideas.
