Default Blueberry Port - won't clear

Hi,
Earlier this year I made a Blueberry port from recipe - completing the
process by fortifying and all is good. Except I have some clumps of
clear jell looking things - like ice jello, floating around. Some is on
the bottom, some on the top and some in between. This appeared after I
fortified with everclear. I've stirred, they dissolve and reappear. I
have had it in cold stablization for a month. Still there. It is about
20 percent of the content, though with the floaters, I'm not sure how to
rack it away.

Should I attempt sparkoloid or other clarifiers? It had been suggested I
bulk age for a year, and this is only month 4 of 12.

Just wondered if anyone knew of this or had this happen... thanks. DAve
