Racking the wine

Today I racked 3 batches of wine; Dandelion, Marrow (rum) and Elderflower.

The Elderflower tasted like it might be quite good, The Marrow Rum has got a long way to go (okay so far it’s pretty awful) but is starting to clear now and the dandelion…. well, it’s not going well.  What I don’t understand is that I made two batches of the dandelion wine at the same time this one (Batch A) just won’t clear (Batch B got bottled a while back and is still looking good, I’m waiting at least another month before I try it though.), I even resorted to using some finings in it which so far doesn’t seem to have done very much (yet, we’ll see in a week or so!).
