I have a grape white wine that I cannot clear.
It was pressed from quasi-wild green grapes a neighbor had; best guess is Niagra. Anyways, the fermentation completed 9 months ago, and I've racked the wine 5 times, but it persists in being very cloudy.
I added bentonite, stirred daily for a week, then let settle for 3 weeks and racked it off - no change to clarity. Next, I added Sparkolloid Powder, stirred daily for a week, and it's been settling for two weeks now. The clarity still hasn't improved in any noticeable fashion - it is very cloudy.
Any suggestions on what to try next? Thanks.
