1) no 2) not necessarily, unless it contains more than 1/6th wine. (see below) AA PS Brandy is somewhat of an ambiguous term. Brandy is distilled from fermented fruit, sometimes aged in oak casks, and usually bottled at 80 proof. Long enjoyed as an after dinner drink, brandy is also widely used in mixed drinks and cooking. It is produced in a number of countries. The term brandy, used alone, means a spirit that has been distilled from grape wine. The brandy from a fruit other than grape is OK. The ones from grape can be an issue. Remy Martin (cognac) was cooked before anyone can touch it. They're probably all like that, but we need to check them out. AA
