Ethyl caproate is one of the important flavor compounds produced during the brewing of rice wine. The rice wine yeast and koji were reported to produce the esterases which synthesize and also hydrolyze ethyl caproate. From the results of monitoring the esterase activities of rice wine yeast and koji, their roles for producing ethyl caproate during brewing were postulated. In case of rice wine yeast, the production of esterase synthesizing ethyl caproate was influenced by the substrate, caproate but that of esterase hydrolyzing ethyl caproate was promoted by ethyl caproate but inhibited by caproate. The production of esterases of koji were not influenced by the substrates for ethyl caproate production but influenced by the growth of koji. The maximum concentration of ethyl caproate produced by rice wine yeast was 0.4 ppm in this research but the production of ethyl caproate by koji was not detected under our experimental conditions. Considering the results of this research, ethyl caproate is not produced by the esterases of koji during brewing but produced by the esterases of rice wine yeast. The growth of rice wine yeast represses that of koji because of the high concentration of ethanol produced by rice wine yeast. The esterases of rice wine yeast may decide the production of ethyl caproate during brewing.

In order to investigate the possible application of immobilized yeast cells in sparkling wine production instead of riddling puns by the traditional method, fermentation characteristics were tested during the sparkling wine fermentation in the bottle using immobilized yeast cells with alginate. The rates of sugar consumption and alcohol production were faster with free cells than those with immobilized cells during the fermentation. The higher concentration of yeast cells and the lower concentration of alginate in the cell immobilization resulted in the faster sugar consumption and alcohol production. It also resulted in the increase of yeast cell concentration released from immobilized beads during the fermentation. However, no differences were shown in the contents of alcohol, residual sugar and CO2 pressure after fermentation. In case concentration of yeast cells released from immobilized beads during bottle fermentation, the higher concentration of alginate had and the lower had.

Different strains of mold were screened for the production of high quality Korean traditional rice wine with anti-hypertension and good acceptability. We isolated 867 nuruk mold strains and selected 24 for further study based on measurement of amylase activity. Among them, mold No. 17 showed high ethanol production upon fermentation with Saccharomyces cerevisiae as well as anti-hypertensive properties. The No. 17 strain was therefore selected as the functional mold and later identified as Rhizopus stolonifer based on molecular biological characteristics. Optimal fermentation conditions for the brewing of anti-hypertensive traditional rice wine comprised the addition of R. stolonifer No. 17 koji at a concentration of 35 sp/g and a fermentation period of 10 days at $25^{\circ}C$ using S. cerevisiae.

Wine increase the quality of and is a favorite drink in Europe and developed countries. Wine is effective in promoting appetite and digestion. Wine which is an alkaline beverage neutralizies physical constitution and has various preventive effents. Also wine increases the taste and aroma of food. However, a various binds of wine needs a special control, and expert knowledge is needed in drinking and serving method of wine. It is very difficult to find the method harmonized cuisine with wine. This study approches to find the method which cuisine and wine are nicely matched through literature reviews. First, the method is analyzed by the order of cuisine. Second, the analyzed by the cooking method. Third is analyzed by the taste of cuisine. Fourth is analyzed by the production, management, providing method, temperature and drinking method. Therefore, we'd like to provide the harmonized methods between cuisine and wine to the emplyees.

This study investigated the effect of co-inoculation with Oenococcus oeni on the final quality of domestic MBA(Muscat Baily A) wine. For experiment five types of wine samples were classified for the experiment and the results are as follows; co-inoculation with Oenococcus oeni concurrently (i.e., the S+O.Co sample) reduced wine production time and facilitated the production offor high quality wine. Compared to the other samples, S+O.Co wine had a higher number of viable Oenococcus oeni cells and a rapid reduction in malic acid content although its lactic acid content increased more rapidly. Concurrent inoculation with yeast and Oenococcus oeni allowed malolactic fermentation and alcohol fermentation to be completed at the same time within 14 to 16 days. Therefore, this study showed that co-inoculation of S+O.Co wine with Oenococcus oeni had an effect through quality improvement, reduced wine making time, and increased productivity.

This study investigates the possibility in establishing the wine theme village in Youngwol area, and grape production and wine industry in world and Korea. Wine import market formed since 1988 in Korea. Because Korean wine production will be finished in 2011, Korean farmers need the strategy against foreign grape and wine importers. That is to establish the wine theme village, one of green tourism. Many pensions and raftsmen are concentrated along the Donggang river, where Geowoun-ri of Youngwol area is located. Possibility in establishing the wine theme village in Geowoun-ri is depend on the attractive program that people enjoy in Youngwol are. The programs have to consist in the regional image.

Ethanol production by the simultaneous saccharification and fermentation (SSF) of low-value rice wine cake (RWC) without cooking was investigated. RWC is the filtered solid waste of fermented rice wine mash and contains 53% raw starch. For the SSF, the RWC slurry was mixed with the raw-starch-digesting enzyme of Rhizopus sp. and yeast, where the yeast strain was selected from 300 strains and identified as Saccharomyces cerevisiae KV25. The highest efficiency (94%) of ethanol production was achieved when the uncooked RWC slurry contained 23.03% starch. The optimal SSF conditions were determined as 1.125 units of the raw-starch-digesting enzyme per gram of RWC, a fermentation temperature of $30^{\circ}C$, slurry pH of 4.5, 36-h-old seeding culture, initial yeast cell number of $2{\times}10^7$ per ml of slurry, 17 mM of urea as the nitrogen additive, 0.25 mM of $Cu^{2+}$ as the metal ion additive, and a fermentation time of 90 h. Under these optimal conditions, the ethanol production resulting from the SSF of the uncooked RWC slurry was improved to 16.8% (v/v) from 15.1% (v/v) of pre-optimization.

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.

This study evaluated the potential of utilizing the osmotic solution from dried mango processing as alternative raw material for mango wine making. Fermentation was carried out using two kinds of yeast strains Saccharomyces bayanus, Lalvin EC-1118 and Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Lalvin D-47 at 20$^{\circ}C$ for 28 days. Physicochemical analysis during fermentation was performed for each treatment and the resulting wine samples were analyzed for color, volatiles and sensory properties. Results of physicochemical analysis between the two fermenting samples as well as the wine samples show almost similar results regardless of the yeast strains. Wine color of sample wines after storage were not significantly different at p<0.05 and when compared with a commercial mango wine. From the volatile analysis, esters and alcohols constituted majority of the compounds. Production of several esters, alcohols, acids and terpenes were affected by yeast strain used in fermentation. Results of sensory analysis showed that wines fermented by S. bayanus EC-1118 strain was more acceptable although sensory scores between the treatments and the reference wine showed significant differences in all the attributes evaluated, except for bitterness. The utilization of osmotic solution from dried mango process could produce similar properties with existing commercial mango wines although there is still need for further work on the improvement of some sensory attributes of the mango wines.
