Brandy or Everkleer is the way to go. Do you think you have enough flavor to do this. You usually use a lot more fruit when making it a higher abv like this.
Personally I use around 8 lbs of fruit per gallon myself and anytime I was going to up the abv above say 14% Id start adding more fruit like with a Port. With a Port I would almost dble the amount of fruit.
how high are you wanting to fortify it to??
I think with higher abv you need more body also so consider using some glycerin in this.
