Default racking off primary

I think I killed my wine. I did five gallons of merlot using
concentrate. My starting sg was1.080. After I racked, there was
about 1/2 gallon headspace. I top it off with 2 quarts of grape juice
and now my sg reading is 1.0. I added 5 crushed campden tabs. With
this reading does this mean 0 alcohol content or can I save it?
