Default Fortifying While Aging?

I have a Diamanti Port working and plan to age in the carboy for about 5 months.

Should I add the brandy before I leave (will age for 5 mo) or add when I get back, before I filter and bottle?

I would add it before I leave it that will give it time to marry into the wine good
