Ah! I'm currently waiting (actually drinking) uncleared Youngman Wine from Wilko. It's quite drinkable, unfortunately, there were no finings in my kit. So, I'm 3 weeks into it, it is clearing by itself. I bottled one bottle tonight and stuck it in the fridge (Chardonnay).
I also bought a Merlot. When it was supposed to be drinkable, it was absolutely disgusting. 2 weeks later I think it was the finings as it has improved enormously.
I will buy them again but will be patient. They won't be made in 7 days. I'll skip the (absolutely revolting) finings and wait for them to clear naturally.
