I started a spiced apple "christmas" wine in December just gone, its two months old today so i'm racking it off the sediment to mature. SG was 1082 and is now 1002 the calculator says around 10.6%. I just had a wee taste and it seems a little bland. Not sure if this is just because its very dry and i prefer sweeter wines. Would adding some sort of sugar to create a little more alcohol help? I've got apple concentrate, honey, syrup or simple sugar? Any advice appreciated.
 
Citric acid and tannin come to mind, but I don't like adding them after a ferment.

Or you could mix with other wines
