Place the wine in a fondue pot and bring to a bubble over medium heat. Reduce the heat to a simmer, add the lemon juice, then add the cheeses in handfuls, stirring in a figure-eight motion with a wooden spoon. When the cheese is fully melted, stir the cornstarch into the brandy until smooth, then add to the cheese. Season with nutmeg and cayenne pepper to taste and serve in the fondue pot over a warming station.
