Default First timer - General Questions

Hi,

I've done homebrews for a number of years, and now I'm finally going to
try wine at home. I have a few questions that I haven't readily found
answers to in the archives.

1. When topping off, how close should the must be to the stopper? 1
inch, 2 inches?

2. My first attempt at wine making will be from a good kit. Is there
any other testing items I should purchase (I only own a hydrometer)?

3. I use one-step or similar sanitizers when brewing, would this be ok
to use when sanitizing fermenters, bottles, hoses, etc? Or should I
purchase some other sanitizer?

Thanks for any help,

Michael
