Default Cloudy white after cold stabilization

Could use some wisdom from some of you here ... gave my Viognier a very
small dose of bentonite a couple weeks ago. Let it do it's thing for a
few days, then put two carboys of the wine into the refrigerator for
cold stabilization. After a few days, the wine is now very cloudy.
Never had this happen before - usually a protein haze will show after
the wine warms up - not while in the cold.

Thoughts on cause - and cure?

This happened to me in the past and the answer was it's cold
stabilization at work - haze first, then crystals. Give it at least
couple of weeks, it should clear up.
