Yes, they are added right before bottling. Powder form.
We (I guess I don't speak for everyone) also use powdered tannins (derived from chestnut trees) during fermentation. They basically drop out after fermentation, but the tannins from the skins then stay in the wine instead of dropping out.
Tannins can also be used to bind up other things (mold) and then taken out with gelatins.
