haze won't clear
 
I have 3 carboys of chardonay and sav. blanc that won't clear up. I
dosed them with issinglass a month ago and nothing is clearing. I
redosed and placed in a very cool environment 2 weeks ago and still
nothing. Any tips? Thanks.

I used superclear on my chardonnay this year and it cleared overnight. It
is a two part clearing agent. You rack it and stir in one packet, wait a
few min's and stir in the next. By the next morning it will probably be
clear.

I don't think that's a good idea - after 2 doses of isinglass, I
wouldn't add another protein-based fining agent. It's probably time for
some bench trials - I'd try kieselsol and/or tannin at this stage and
maybe bentonite (again).

I take it that you have not used it before.
