Kiwifruit wine was prepared with the domestic new cultivars 'Jecy Sweet' and 'Jecy Gold', and quality characteristics were investigated during fermentation with Saccharomyces bayanus Lalvin and Saccharomyces cerevisiae Fermivin and aging for 120 days at $15^{\circ}C$. Total acidities were 0.94% and 1.22% for 'Jecy Sweet' and 'Jecy Gold' at the beginning, respectively, and increased gradually during fermentation; highest acidities were 1.49% and 1.26%, respectively, on the 6th day of fermentation regardless of yeast strain. Alcohol content increased greatly from the 4th day of fermentation and was highest (10.2%) in 'Jecy Sweet' fermented by S. bayanus Lalvin, followed by 9.2% in 'Jecy Sweet' fermented by S. cerevisiae Fermivin and 9.4% in 'Jecy Gold' fermented by Lalvin and Fermivin on the 12th day of fermentation. Soluble solid content was $24.8^{\circ}Brix$ at the beginning and decreased gradually during fermentation. The lowest soluble solid content was $9.7^{\circ}Brix$ on the 6th day of fermentation regardless of kiwifruit cultivar and yeast strain. Total phenols in 'Jecy Sweet' (1,127 mg/L) were 1.32-fold higher than those in 'Jecy Gold' (848 mg/L) and decreased greatly until the 6th day of fermentation, after which they increased slightly until the 12th day of fermentation. During aging, total phenols increased until the 30th day and were maintained for 120 days. Quality characteristics of kiwifruit wines were similar between the two yeast strains but were different between kiwifruit cultivars. Contents of ethanol and total phenolics were higher in 'Jecy Sweet' wine than in 'Jecy Sweet' wine.

$^1H$ NMR spectroscopy coupled with multivariate statistical analysis was used for the first time to investigate metabolic changes in musts during alcoholic fermentation and wines during ageing. Three Saccharomyces cerevisiae yeast strains (RC-212, KIV-1116 and KUBY-501) were also evaluated for their impacts on the metabolic changes in must and wine. Pattern recognition (PR) methods, including PCA, PLS-DA and OPLS-DA scores plots, showed clear differences for metabolites among musts or wines for each fermentation stage up to 6 months. Metabolites responsible for the differentiation were identified to valine, 2,3-butanediol (2,3-BD), pyruvate, succinate, proline, citrate, glycerol, malate, tartarate, glucose, N-methylnicotinic acid (NMNA), and polyphenol compounds. PCA scores plots showed continuous movements away from days 1 to 8 in all musts for all yeast strains, indicating continuous and active fermentation. During alcoholic fermentation, highest levels of 2,3-BD, succinate and glycerol were found in musts with the KIV-1116 strain, which showed the fastest fermentation or highest fermentative activity of the 3 strains, whereas the KUBY-501 strain showed the slowest fermentative activity. This study highlights the applicability of NMR-based metabolomics for monitoring wine fermentation and evaluating the fermentative characteristics of yeast strains.

Fermentation of ice apple wine from freeze-concentrated Fuji apple juice to 36 $^{\circ}Brix$ was carried out using Saccharomyces cerevisiae SS89, a sugar-tolerant wine yeast strain. The characteristics of the fermentation and the properties of ice apple wine were compared with those of S. cerevisiae W-3, an industrial wine yeast that was used as a control in this study. During the fermentation, the alcohol content increased more rapidly by S. cerevisiae SS89 together with the decrease of the soluble solid content, compared to S. cerevisiae W-3. It reached 12% (v/v) after 15 days of fermentation by S. cerevisiae SS89 (12.4%, v/v) and 21 days by S. cerevisiae W-3 (12.6%, v/v). The soluble solid contents of the SS89 and W-3 wines were 24.0 and 23.6 $^{\circ}Brix$, respectively. Lactic acid was detected at the highest level, followed by malic aid, among the organic acids in both wines. No big differences in the organic acid contents were observed based on the strains. In the SS89 wine, higher levels of methanol, propanol, butanol, and isoamyl alcohol were detected, together with a lower isobutanol content, compared with the W-3 wine. The SS89 wine showed higher level of intensity as well as higher Hunter's L and b color values compared to the W-3 wine. In the sensory evaluation, similar scores in color, flavor, taste, and overall preference were obtained in the two wines. Therefore, S. cerevisiae SS89 was thought to be useful for the rapid fermentation of ice apple wine.

In order to brew foxtail millet wine, a folk wine of Cheju, properties of raw materials, optimum brewing conditions were inveatigated. Carbohydrate and crude fat content of glutinuous foxtail millet are 71.27% and 3.47%, respectively. Since the ratio of water to steamed millet and ethanol concentration of wine showed negative correlation, less than 250% water had to added to steamed millet to maintain ethanol concentration in wine above 13%, Sugar consumption and ethanol production increased rapidly for the first 2 days, and main fermentation was done in 4 days. Ethanol concentrations were $13.0{\sim}13.4%$ when foxtail millet was used, and they were $14.0{\sim}14.3%$ for the mixture substrates of 90% millet and 10% rice or barley. Organic acids in millet wine were lactic acid, malic acid and succinic acid. The residual carbohydrates after fermentation were mainly xylose and oligosaccharides. A trace of methanol was detected in millet wine. The content of fusel oil was low, while the concnetration of organic acids was high. Optimum conditions for millet wine-making were as follows. Glutinuous foxtail millet with 10% rice as fermentation source need to be soaked in water and steamed for enough time. Water was added to steamed millet with the ratio of 2 : 1. The resulting mixture was stmnultaneously saccharified and fermented by Aspergillus orzae and Saccharomyces cerevisiae IAM 4274 at $20^{\circ}C$ for a week. Millet wine was prepared after filtering fermented broth while pressing for a week.

In order to improve wine quality, the selection of yeast strain and of additives in the manufacture of Bokbunja (Rubus coreanus Miq.) wine was investigated. The chemical composition of the edible portions of Bokbunja fruits was 86.5% moisture, 0.2% crude protein, 0.9% crude fat, 6.6% crude fiber, 0.5% ash and $10^{\circ}Brix$ sugar, and was 2.99% fructose, 2.53% glucose and 0.07% sucrose in fruit extract. The predominant organic acids in the fruit were citric acid (14.57 mg/mL) and malic acid (2.24 mg/mL) with smaller amounts of shikimic, pyroglutamic and oxalic acid. During fermentation, citric and malic acid levels decreased, while formic and acetic acid were released. Saccharomyces cerevisiae KCCM 12224 (Sc-24) was more favorable for alcoholic fermentation of Bokbunja and the addition of 200 ppm of potassium metabisulphite to must was more efficient than other $SO_2$ sources with a higher overall acceptability score. Sc-24 increased alcohol production from 9.8 to 14.8% in a sugar concentration dependent manner $(18-28^{\circ}Brix)$. The color value of early stage Bokbunja must was improved by supplementing with Japanese apricot extract, but this did not influence the color value of Bokbunja wine after primary fermentation. The astringent taste of Bokbunja wine was reduced by removing the seed from the fruit. Sugar solution (50%, w/v) was used instead of sugar power to prevent the possibility of undissolved sugar due to insufficient mixing. This substitution did not influence sensory evaluation.

This study was conducted to investigate the physicochemical and quality characteristics of alcohol fermentation of tomato. For yeast, Saccharomyces bayanus Lalvin EC-1118 displayed the highest alcohol content (11.8%), whereas titratable acidity and pH did not differ significantly between different yeasts. Alcohol fermentation conducted at higher temperature ($25^{\circ}C$) resulted in higher alcohol content and lower sugar level. The highest alcohol content was produced using 11.4% sucrose and 11.1% fructo-oligosaccharide. These two saccharides were suitable for tomato alcohol fermentation. Lycopene levels were similar regardless of sugar type, and were approximately 4.2 mg%. To improve lycopene content, three types of fruit wine with low-dose lycopene (LDL), medium-dose lycopene (MDL), and high-dose lycopene (HDL) were made. Their alcohol contents were not significantly different (10.0~10.8%). Lycopene contents of LDL, MDL, and HDL wine were 4.25 mg%, 11.40 mg%, and 20.45 mg%, respectively. Therefore, HDL tomato wine should be manufactured.

Glutinous rice Sikhye was fermented by Saccharomyces cerevisiae for 10 day at 29$^{\circ}C$. Fermentable sugars such as maltose and maltotriose in glutinous rice Sikhye were converted into ethanol by the yeast, but limit dextrin was remained after the fermentation. fermentation rate of sugars in glutinous rice Sikhye was lower than that in rice Sikhye. Glutinous rice Sikhye wine was found to contain 7.3% of limit dextrin, 3.6% of ethanol, 0.35$\mu$mol/ml of amino acid, 100$\mu\textrm{g}$/ml of protein, and the acidity of the Sikhye showed 3.2, respectively, and its pH was 3.23. Limit dextrin in glutinous rice Sikhye wine showed both signal of $\alpha$-1, 4- and $\alpha$-1,6- glucisidic linkage with its estimation ratio of 5.6:1 by 1H-NMR analysis. The taste of rice Sikhye wine was similar that of wine.

The objective of this study was to investigate quality properties of 'Cheonghyang' wine using different commercial yeast strains. Soluble solid content, pH level and total acidity of 'Cheonghyang' grape were $20^{\circ}Bx$, pH 3.5 and 0.66%, respectively. Total acidity ranged from 0.91~1.06% in the middle stage of fermentation and decreased to 0.77~0.82% when alcoholic fermentation finished. Alcohol content in wines ranged from 12.5% to 12.9% showing no significant difference in yeast strains. Wine fermented with Red Fruit had high volatile acid content (189.0 mg/L) whereas wine fermented with Fermivin indicated low volatile acid content (77.7 mg/L). Wines made with Montrachet, Fermivin and Aroma White had low brightness (L-value) compared to others. Results from sensory evaluation demonstrated that commercial wine yeasts, Montrachet and Fermivin, can be applied to improve sensory properties of 'Cheonghyang' wine such as aroma, acidity and transperency. On the other hand, preferences of wine fermented with EC-1118 strain containing lots of tannins and total polyphenols were significantly reduced.

This study investigated the quality characteristics and antioxidant activities of Makgeolli (a traditional Korean rice wine) made with Etteum bell flower root (0.5, 1, 1.5, and 2% with steamed rice) during fermentation. The pH values of Makgeolli with Etteum bell flower root powder decreased after 3 days of fermentation and then increased after 5 days of fermentation. Sugar content decreased after 3 days of fermentation. Color evaluation showed the L values of these drinks decreased during fermentation, whereas a and b values both increased. The alcohol content of Makgeolli increased after fermentation, reaching a maximum concentration of 7.90-8.07% by the end of fermentation. Total phenolic compound contents and DPPH radical scavenging activities increased as the ratio of Etteum bell flower root increased. Sensory scores of Makgeolli fermented with 1.5% Etteum bell flower root ware greater than those of Makgeolli prepared by other treatments. Therefore, Makgeolli added with 1.5% Etteum bell flower root added considered to be the most suitable for manufacturing.
