What is the best or most common substance to top off wine, in particular, strawberry? I don't really want to add water to dillute it, would wine or juice be better?
Thanks ,

Add some rosé wine. If you add juice the fermentation will start again.

Thanks for the tip Tom.
My suggestion is -- don't.
Now if you are making a 1 gallon batch you may not have much choice, but for larger batches, I suggest you rack into smaller carboy's (6 to a 5, 5 to a 3 and 1's, etc.) This way most of it will not have to be toped. Only that last carboy. Oh, it helps to have some 1/2 gallon jugs handy.
