title_body: Does adding honey to bottled wine increase the alcohol content?
upvoted_answer: Highly unlikely that the alcohol went up. Four reasons. 
  
  
  The alcohol already in the wine is a barrier for the yeast to re-ferment.
  The sulfites in the wine could inhibit refermentation if it hasn't dissipated yet. 
  The cold temperatures that will also inhibit fermentation. 
  Many commercial wines are sterile filtered so yeast counts are zero to very, very tiny. 
  
  
  So, in 24 hours it's highly unlikely that it fermented again. Your perception of alcohol may be enhanced by the sugar that you added. High alcohol wines routinely taste "sweeter" to many people even though sugar levels are low. You might have tricked yourself into thinking sweet wine = higher alcohol.
