You can add it at any time, but it's most helpful in the beginning to get more juice out of the apples (or other fresh fruit). If you're using juice, it doesn't really matter when you add it.

You can add pectic enzyme at any time. I'd suggest dissolving it in some water or some of the wine first, to avoid causing foaming. But otherwise it can just be stirred in.
