RMF Paskens like the Rama against the SA -- YD 134:13 (Yet he still
encourages, Tavo Alav Beracah, since he aids the BsAlei Nefesh who avoid
such whiskey - truly irrelevant but why not chuck it in?)

The RaShBa holds that wine is NEVER Battel, it never loses its identity as
wine because although by normal Halacha there is Bittul, in this case where
Chazall promulgated this to promote social isolation, it MAKES NO SENSE
(this is the RaShBa's own idea, he finds support from the way he learns the
Sugya of Gevinas Alum) to propose that there should be Bittul unless it is
an inadvertent mixture.

When RMF explains that at 1:6 it's not Yayin, that means it's Battel, it's
lost it's identity. Had RMF subscribed to the RaShBa, there would be
nothing to consider - the point is, it is incumbent to retain the social
isolationist policy.

The Rashba explicitly discussed the case where wine is intentionally added.
