Answers:
Well, make sure everything is very clean and sanitized!. Usually you won't have to add more yeast, but adding more sugar will help boost alcohol content up to a point!. Usually anywhere from 12-16% alcohol is where most wine yeast die out and won't make anymore alcohol, so after that, you're just making a sweeter wine!.

I also recommend checking out the Jack Keller wine making website!. Lots of information, even on making juice concentrate wines like you're talking about!.

More sugar will up to a point!. Eventually the alcohol gets to high and kills the yeast anyhow!. Once you get to like 10-15% you just get sweeter wine!.

You don't need more yeast since they are alive and make more themselves!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
