A great variety of the volatile metabolic by-products was formed in yeast cell during alcohol fermentation. The seibel grape (Vitis labrasca) which was grown in the Southern Korea used for wines. The objective of this research was to identify the volatile flavor compounds during alcohol fermentation and aging at 12$^{\circ}C$. saccharomyces cerevisiae and Schizosaccharomyces pombe were inoculated and fermented in seibel grape must. The volatile flavor compounds of logarithmic, stationary and death phases were extracted, concentrated and identified by gas chromatography/mass spectrometer (GC/MS). The volatile flavor compounds were determined by a Hewlett-Packard 5890 II Plus GC which was equipped with Supelcowax 10 fused silica capillary column (60m$\times$0.32mm$\times$0.25${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ film thickness) wall coated with polyethyleneglycerol. The scan detection method allowed the comparison of the spectrum from the chromatogram of volatile flavor compounds to those in data Wileynbs base library. Among the volatile compounds collected by ether-hexane extraction method, the evolution of 20 main compounds, such as 9 esters (ethyl butyrate, isoamyl acetate, ethyl caproate, n-hexyl acetate, ethl caprylate, ethyl caprate, diethy succinate, ethyl hexadecanoate, 2-pheneethyl acetate), 4 alcohols (3-methyl-1-butanol, 1-hexanol, 1-heptanol, benzoethanol), 4 ketones and acids (2-octanone, caproic acid, caprylic acid, capric acid), 2 furan and phenol (2,6-bis(1,1-dimethyl ethyl)phenol, 2,3-dihydrobenzofuran) were observed during alcohol fermentation and aging. The production of the esters during alcohol fermentation with S. cerevisiae was higher than those of Sch. pombe. The sensory scores of the aged wine samples in aroma, taste and overall acceptability were not significantly different(p<0.05).

This study was attempted to investigate the changes of chemical components by different yeast strains during alcohol fermentation at $12^{\circ}C$. Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Saccharomyces cerevisiae+Schizosaccharomyces pombe, and Schizosaccharomyces pombe were inoculated in the Seibel grape must, respectively. Sch. pombe began to metabolize malic acid after 4 days fermentation actively and utilized approximately 54% of initial malic acid. Ethanol contents of S. cerevisiae, S. cerevisiae+Sch.. pombe and Sch. pombe were 11.5%, 11.2%, and 10.0%, respectively. The fermentability of Sch. pombe was slower than that of S. cerevisiae. The production of sulfite showed a positive linear relationship with the yeast growth (P<0.01). Sensory scores indicated that the wine samples fermented by S. cerevisiae and Sch. pombe were not significantly different in color, odor, after taste and overall acceptability. Especially, the taste of Sch. pombe was significantly better than that of S. cerevisiae (P<0.05).
