Tried this with Bombay Sapphire and Noilly Prat, two half-size stirs testing Mariquinhas and Luxardo Sangue Morlacco. The former ends up tasting like a Gin & It, while the latter has more cherry and seems a bit unbalanced, burying the vermouth a bit. The uncalculated blend between both versions (married merge) had a bit of both. Good excuse to waste (err savor) a cherry garnish.

Not a fan of cherry brandy but when the cupboard needs clearing out this is worth making. A little too sweet for me but tasty for one.
