Help with ABV

I have four gallons of black and blue wine. It is 13.5% abv. I added four pints of black beery brandy that is 35 proof. Could someone tell me the new ABV? Thanks in advance.

13.944% is final ABV.

I am almost certain you meant that the brandy was 70 proof (35%). See, for example: http://www.drinksmixer.com/desc234.html

In this case, the final ABV will be 15.88%. You can calculate such things using this tool: http://winemaking.jackkeller.net/blending.asp

Yes it is 35%, 70 proof Black berry brandy. I added four pints to the four gallons of 13.5 % abv wine.

Not sure if you saw that I calculated that, in this case, the ABV is 15.88%.
