Well, that's not an easy question to answer! The best answer I can give is "It depends". It depends on so many things- the type of yeast, the temperature of the wine, whether fining agents were used, what kind of haze it is, how many times it's been racked, what ingredients you used.
I have had a couple of wines that NEVER cleared on their own without finings. Most of them have cleared on their own given enough time and/or cold storage. I could give you more specific ideas on how to handle it if you would provide the recipe you used, and the timing schedule.

I'm about to set up my 3rd winexpert's kit, and the directions for them all say 14+ days AFTER fining agents should you begin to check for clarity. IF not clear to liking, allow ANOTHER 14 days.
Hope that helps
