Oak barrel have been used for a long time for the aging of wine. Instead of oak barrel aging, however, roasted oak chips can be directly added in the wine before aging. In this study, Korean oak chips roasted for different time durations were used for the red wine aging, and the properties of wine aged through the addition of the roasted oak chips were characterized. No significant differences were observed in the alcohol, soluble-solid, reducing-sugar and total-acid contents based on the oak chips aging, but the total phenol content increased. The methanol, ethyl acetate, propanol, isobutanol and isoamyl alcohol contents also increased. Especially, the methanol and propanol contents increased as the roasting time was prolonged. Although the hue values were similar to one another, the intensity as well as the lightness, redness, and yellowness values were high in the wine aged with the roasted oak chips. In the sensory evaluation, the wine aged with oak chips roasted for 2 h showed the highest scores in the flavor, taste, and overall preference.

Effects of clarification and aging of honey wine(mead) and fruit honey wine(melomel) were investigated. Among the clarifiers tested, 'kaki shibu' and 'sake light' were effective in clearing honey wine. Clear honey wine with more than 90% light transmittance was obtained by treatment with $0.05{\sim}0.1%$ of 'kaki shibu' and 'sake light' for 2 days. Higher concentration of these clarifying agents was needed for the clarification of fruit honey wines. Treatment with 0.5% of 'sake light' and $0.05{\sim}0.1%$ of 'kaki shibu' for 4 days was effective for clearing Tangerine honey wine and Japanese apricot honey wine. Though Hunter L-values of honey wines decreased a little bit by using clarifiers, their light transmittance became more than 98% after ultrafiltration. As the content of soluble solid in mash at the beginning of fermentation increased, the content of acetaldehyde, n-propyl alcohol, n-butyl alcohol and iso-amyl alcohol of honey wine increased during aging, while the content of iso-propyl alcohol decreased. During the aging of honey wines, the sensory quality of them became milder as the amount of acetaldehyde and fusel oil decreased. Among more than twenty different volatile flavor components detected from honey wines, 1-phenyl ethyl alcohol, benzyl alcohol, 2-phenyl ethyl alcohol, octacosane and triacotane were identified as the major components for the flavor of honey wines. Sensory evaluation of the honey wines indicated that the melomel made with Japanese apricot was better than the Tangerine melomel in the aspects of taste, flavor, color and the overall acceptability. Tangerine melomel was even inferior to honey wine(mead).

Qualitative properties- polyphenol compounds(total phenolics, anthocyanin, flavonoids, tannins), color parameters and antioxidant activities- of wild grape wine having different aging periods were studied. The contents of total phenolics and anthocyanin decreased significantly in accordance with aging terms(p<0.05). The total phenolics and anthocyanin of the oldest wine(WG3) represented only 43% and 45% of it's related compound in the wine aged for one year(WG1), respectively. The contents and the degree of polymerization of tannins, including condensed tannins, also decreased but not showed statistically significant. However, The contents of flavonoids of the 2 year old wine(WG2) decreased significantly related to that of WG1, remaining, then, almost constant at that levels during aging. The L* values, b(yellow) values and the hue (hab) values were increased in long aged wines(WG2, WG3), while the intensity of color(CI) and, the a(red) parameter value decreased. The antiradical activity of wild grape wines was shown to be high(87 EDA%) in WG1. The corresponding coefficient of tannin concentrations with antiradical activity($r^2$=0.9189) suggests that the tannin content may be strongly related to the antioxidant properties of wild grape wines.

To develop a new functional fruit wine, quality characteristics and physiological functionality of wild grape wine (WGW) were investigated and compared with that of foreign grape wine (FGW). Ethanol contents of WGW was 11.0%, similar to that of FGW(10.6%), but total acidity(0.67%) and total anthocyanin content($A_{520}$: 0.32) of WGW were higher than those of FGW(0.4%, 0.22). Antioxydant activity and SOD-like activity of WGW which is related in anti-aging functionality were 93.6% and 53.0%, respectively, higher than those of FGW(85.9%, 42.5%). from this results, we concluded domestic wild grape wine is very excellent functional fruit wine.

This study aimed to investigate the wine properties of new Korean grape cultivar Ageude. To this end, wine was produced using five grape cultivars including Campbell Early and Muscat Bailey A, which are commonly used for winemaking in Korea and Pinot Meunier and Gamay, which are European wine grape cultivars. We conducted a comprehensive analysis of wine quality properties, color, and phenolic compounds and compared the variations observed among these cultivars. The pH and total acid contents were in the ranges of 3.75-4.57 and 0.39-0.58%, respectively. Specifically, the total acid content of Ageude was 0.47% which was not high, when compared to those of other wines. However, the soluble solid content was 7.85 °Brix, which was higher than those of the other wines. In terms of color, the redness, color intensity, and hue values were all considerably high. Moreover, the total phenolic content and total anthocyanin content of Ageude were notably higher than those of the other cultivars. However, it is worth noting that proanthocyanidin was not detected. Based on these findings, Ageude is an excellent cultivar for producing red wine, owing to its high total anthocyanin content and redness due to the absence of proanthocyanidin, it is more suitable for producing short-term aging wine rather than long-term aging wine.

This study investigated the quality characteristics of kiwi wine during low temperature aging on several alcohol fermentation strains. Alcohol content increased sharply from 2 days of fermentation, and then maintained steadily after 8 days of fermentation. In the alcohol content of kiwi wine on several alcohol fermentation strains such as Sacch. cerevisiae GRJ, Sacch. kluyveri DJ97 and Sacch. cerevisiae Wine 3 showed a high value of more than 13%, 12.7% for Zigosacch. cerevisiae JK99 and 12.3% for Sacch. cerevisiae OMK, respectively. Sugar content decreased steadily during fermentation and then showed approximately $10^{\circ}$Brix on 8 days of fermentation. Total acidity ranged $1.03{\sim}1.04%$ in total samples, increased slowly during fermentation and then maintained steadily during aging. During the fermentation, L value in Hunter's color value continued to increase, a value decreased steadily and b value showed high yellow to approximately 20.0. For aging duration, L and b values decreased while a value increased. Glucose and maltose were detected as free sugars of kiwi wine. In volatile flavor compounds, alcohols were identified differently on alcohol fermentation strains, but the others showed similar tendency. In conclusion, quality characteristics of kiwi wine on several alcohol fermentation strains showed similarly; however, Sacch. cerevisiae Wine 3 was overall the most suitable.

Two different mixing ratios of Rosa rugosa and Rubus crataegifolius (Korean raspberry), including Rosa rugosa and one part Rosa rugosa vs five parts Rubus crataegifolius were prepared, and their fermentation characteristics were investigated during 28 days of ethanol fermentation and subsequent aging. The final $^{\circ}Brix$ and pH of Rosa rugosa wine were 12.0 and 2.9, respectively, while those of Korean raspberry-Rosa rugosa wine were $7.0^{\circ}Brix$ and pH 3.4, respectively. The final ethanol contents were 5.0% (v/v) in Rosa rugosa wine and 9.8% in Korean raspberry-rugosa wine. The level of antocyanine content, color intensity, organic acid, and free amino acid concentrations in Rosa rugosa wine were lower than those of Korean raspberry-Rosa rugosa wine. Thus, our results demonstrate that supplementation of Rosa rugosa with Korean raspberry prior to alcohol fermentation may help improve the fermentation characteristics of Rosa rugosa wine in the final product.

Skin aging is related to genetic and environmental factors (e.g., gene mutation and UV radiation respectively). To develop a new anti-wrinkle cosmetic or functional food by using Korean rice wine cake, we examined the effects of Korean rice wine cake, a brewery byproduct, on antioxidant effect, collagen synthesis and expression of MMP-1. Interestingly, we found that Korean rice wine cake has the ability to promote scavenging activity of DPPH radical. We also found that the cell proliferation and synthesis of collagen in HS27 cells was increased by Korean rice wine cake in a concentration-dependent manner. However, elastase inhibitory activity was not changed. In addition, the expression of MMP-1 was inhibited by Korean rice wine cake in a concentration-dependent manner. All these results suggest that Korean rice wine cake can be effectively used for the prevention of wrinkles in human skin.
