3 months is pretty short for a fresh fruit wine. It's probably just
normal sediment still settling down from suspension. You can even get
sediment after filtering if you filter too early. The particles need
time to combine to get big enough to fall down, so even if the wine
looks clear, it can still throw sediment later in the bottle.
