Making beer and making wine two different overlapping arts. Beer folk boil their wort to extract sugar which also sterilizes it. Winemakers might or might not boil their fruit, depending on what kind of fruit it is. Some people steam their fruit to get the juice out, others just crush it and some just toss it in and let the yeast do all the work. A good example is all the different ways elderberries are treated. You can boil the fresh fruit to extract the juice, or steam it, or crush it and toss it in, or crush it and press it, or dry the berries and either just toss them in or boil them for a little while and add the juice. If you dont boil your fruit adding KM will knock the bugs back, but not sterilize the must, until your stronger yeast can take control. Some people even make wine from jam and that has been cooked a lot. Another option is to boil your sugar, put the fruit in your primary bucket and dump the boiling water on the fruit, some people claim it sets the color and knocks back the bad bugs at the same time.
The question you need to really ask is what is best for my fruit. Raspberries being of a delicate flavor are better off not being cooked in my opinion. Much better to just crush them and toss them into the must for a couple of days. Hot tap water or even just warm water will easily dissolve that much sugar, no need to even put it on a stove. You should also add pectinase to clear pectin hazes at the start and also get more juice out of your berries. You should also be tossing some kind of nutrients in there and balancing for acid levels. These steps are different than what beer folks have to consider.
