In Jon Iverson's book, Home Winemaking, he mentions, "In most cases the wine
will appear to be totally clear in about ten days". I've used Sparkolloid on Chardonay and Sauvignon Blanc. Its a pain to mix up and prepare but will fine at much cooler temp than Bentonite. So I put it in just before I cold stabilize the wine and rack off after cold stabilization is completed. If it were me, I'd wait a month and if it hasn't cleared, consider other strategies to clear the wine. "pheasant" > wrote in message ... > My wife tried this to clear some rhubarb wine.
