Default Error in wine Kit

I just realized I made a mistake when making a BrewKing red wine kit. On
step 3 you are supposed to add the Potassium Sorbate and Potassium
Metabisulphate to the carboy and stir to remove CO2 from the wine, then add
the Chitosan and stir again. What I did wrong was I racked to a bucket and
stirred in the bucket. I assume I added a bunch of unwanted O2. Will this
effect the taste of the wine? Will it effect the shelf life of the wine?
Should I add a little more Potassium Metabisulphate just before bottling,
the kit does not call for it.
