This study investigated the antioxidant activities of wine made with aronia (Aronia melanocarpa). The ethanol concentration of the aronia wine was increased up to 7.8±0.1% on the 8th day of fermentation. Compared to other types of wine, the total amount of organic acids was highest in raspberry wine, followed by grape wine, arona wine, and aronia juice. Because, acetic, oxalic, and succinic acids were not detected in the aronia juice, but were detected in the aronia wine, it was determined that they were produced during alcohol fermentation. The polyphenol content in the aronia juice and wine was higher than in the grape wine and raspberry wine and was twice as much in the aroni wine than in the aronia juice. The flavonoid content in aronia juice and wine was higher than in commercial grape wine and raspberry wine. The DPPH radical scavenging ability was higher than 50% in the aronia wine and juice samples. ABTS radical scavenging activity was higher in aronia juice and wine than in raspberry wine and grape wine. The results of this study suggest that the development of wine with high antioxidant activity is possible if wine is made with aronia.

Yeast with excellent ferment ability was isolated and selected from wild grape to manufacture wild grape wine. Wild grape wine by SMR-3 isolated from wild grape was better than other strains in quality, such as high alcohol content and low acidity, residual sugar, organic acid and fusel oil content. Fermentation condition was optimized to manufacture wild grape wine with response surface methodology using isolated SMR-3 as an alcohol fermentation strain. As a result of culture conditions, 10.61% of alcohol content was expected under the conditions of $21.91^{\circ}C$ fermenting temperature, $21.48^{\circ}brix$ of initial sugar content, and 14.65 day of fermentation time. Residual sugar content showed the lowest value at $24.48^{\circ}C$ fermentation temperature, $12.78^{\circ}brix$ of initial sugar content, and 9.02 day fermentation time. The highest level of sensory evaluation was found at $20.23^{\circ}C$ fermentation temperature, $25.30^{\circ}brix$ of initial sugar content, and 5.94 day fermentation time. Ethyl alcohol was the main alcohol component in wild grape wine and fusel oil in wild grape wine was hardly detected; thus, the quality of wild grape wine was considered excellent. The optimal fermentation conditions of wild grape wine was superimposed by deriving a regression equation for alcohol content, fusel oil, ethyl alcohol content, and overall palatability for each variable of wild grape wine. Hence, the optimal fermentation conditions are estimated to be: fermentation temperature $24{\sim}28^{\circ}C$, initial sugar content $20{\sim}24^{\circ}brix$, and fermenting time $12{\sim}14$ days.

This study investigated the fermentation characteristics of wild grape(Vitis amurensis) wine prepared with reed(Phragmites communis) root. The reed root was added to the fermentation of wild grape wine in the quantities of 0.5%, 1.0% and 2.0%. An addition of reed root during yeast fermentation of wild grape wine decreased the acidity and increased pH of fermentation culture, thus enhancing the consumption of sugar and production of ethanol. Especially, the addition of 2% reed root led to production of about 13% ethanol in 4 day of fermentation time. The sensory evaluation showed that the wild grape wine fermented with 2.0% reed root was most acceptable.

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.

We investigated the effect of grape-must temperature ($50^{\circ}C$, $60^{\circ}C$, and $70^{\circ}C$) on wine quality. We used Muscat Bailey A (MBA) grapes; these are often used in wine making in Korea. The numbers of viable bacteria, yeasts and molds in grape-must decreased with an increase in temperature. Polyphenol oxidase activities in grape-must were reduced at high temperatures. Redness; and, total anthocyanin, polyphenol, and tannin contents of MBA grape wine were higher after heating at $70^{\circ}C$ than after use of lower temperatures. Antioxidant activity was also enhanced after exposure to high temperatures, which may be attributable to the presence of increased levels of polyphenolic compounds in the grape-must. Thus, the heat treatment to prepare grape-must before wine fermentation greatly affects wine quality.

The wine industry requires practical methods for objectively measuring the composition of both red wine grapes on the vine to determine optimal harvest time; and of freshly harvested grapes for efficient allocation to vinery process streams for particular red wine products, and to determine payment of contract grapegrowers. To be practical for industry application these methods must be rapid, inexpensive and accurate. In most cases this restricts the analyses available to measurement of TSS (total soluble solids, predominantly sugars) by refractometry and pH by electropotentiometry. These two parameters, however, do not provide a comprehensive compositional characterization for the purpose of winemaking. The concentration of anthocyanin pigment in red wine grapes is an accepted indicator of potential wine quality and price. However, routine analysis for total anthocyanins is not considered as a practical option by the wider wine industry because of the high cost and slow turnaround time of this multi-step wet chemical laboratory analysis. Recent work by this ${group}^{l,2}$ has established the capability of near infrared (NIR) spectroscopy to provide rapid, accurate and simultaneous measurement of total anthocyanins, TSS and pH in red wine grapes. The analyses may be carried out equally well using either research grade scanning spectrometers or much simpler reduced spectral range portable diode-array based instrumentation. We have recently expanded on this work by collecting thousands of red wine grape samples in Australia. The sample set spans two vintages (1999 and 2000), five distinct geographical winegrowing regions and three main red wine grape varieties used in Australia (Cabernet Sauvignon, Shiraz and Merlot). Homogenized grape samples were scanned in diffuse reflectance mode on a FOSE NIR Systems6500 spectrometer and subject to laboratory analysis by the traditional methods for total anthocyanins, TSS and pH. We report here an analysis of the correlations between the NIR spectra and the laboratory data using standard chemometric algorithms within The Unscrambler software package. In particular, various subsets of the total data set are considered in turn to elucidate the effects of vintage, geographical area and grape variety on the measurement of grape composition by NIR spectroscopy. The relative ability of discrete calibrations to predict within and across these differences is considered. The results are then used to propose an optimal calibration strategy for red wine grape analysis.

Wild grapes contain lots of organic acids, vitamins and inorganic salts compared to other fruits. Also, it has known to have excellent effects on preventing cancer and heart disease. Wild grapes are supposed to be superior material for fermentation of wine. Tannin contents of wine, which is an important functional factor in flavor of wine, were enhanced to develop quality of Korean wild grape wine. In this study, we investigated tannin extraction conditions and analyzed quality properties of tannin-enhanced wild grape wine. The most suitable tannin extraction condition for enhancing tannin of wild grape wine was extraction of tannin from green tea using spirits at 4oC. For producing high quality wild grape wine, added concentration and time of tannin extract were 6.5 mg/mL before wild grape wine fermentation. Tannin contents of tannin-enhanced wild grape wine was $7.4{\pm}0.05\;mg/mL$. Quality properties of tannin-enhanced wild grape wine fermented under optimized fermentation conditions were analyzed. pH, acidity and alcohol contents were $3.69{\pm}0.01$, $0.95{\pm}0.01%$ and $12.2{\pm}0.03%$, respectively. Total sugar, tannin, polyphenol and resveratrol contents of tannin-enhanced wild grape wine were $60.00{\pm}1.15\;mg/mL$, $79.50{\pm}0.55\;mg/mL$, $7.40{\pm}0.05\;mg/mL$ and $5.00{\pm}0.11\;mg/mL$, respectively showing significantly higher value than that of commercial wine. Production of high quality wild grape wine is expected with the establishment of optimum fermentation condition and tannin-enhancing process of wild grape wine.

Fermentation characteristics of rice-grape wine with different mixing ratios of rice and grape, rice one vs. grape five (Exp.1), rice two vs. grape five (Exp.2), rice five vs. grape five (Exp.3), and rice five and grape two (Exp.4), were investigated. Final alcohol contents of Exp.4, Exp.3, Exp.2, and Exp.1 were 18.4, 16.0, 14.9, and 12.9%, respectively. Final alcohol content increased with increasing amount of rice. Acidity of four experiments ranged pH 3.4-3.92, and total acidity was 0.52-0.74%. Exp.4, Exp.3, Exp.2, and Exp.1 gave a values of 8.76, 12.77, 12.88, and 23.96, respectively. When different mixing methods were applied to Exp.1, the resulting final alcohol contents of Exp.6 (grape musts periodically added after rice fermentation), Exp.7 (rice and grape simultaneously added and fermented), and Exp.8 (rice added after grape must fermentation) were 2.3-3.2% Bower than that of Exp.1 (grape must added after rice fermentation), and total acidity was 0.72-0.74%. Sensory evaluation comparing conventional red wine and rice-grape wine of Exp.1 showed rice-grape wine was preferred in taste.
