Chemical and sensory profiles of 5 Korean commercial rice wines (yakju) were developed using descriptive, physicochemical, and volatile analyses. Color, 6 aroma, and 5 taste attributes of these rice wines were evaluated by a panel of 13 judges. Sample wines were analyzed for titratable acidity, ethanol content, pH, Hunter colorimeter value, organic acids, and free sugars. Volatile analysis of the samples revealed the presence of 2 acids, 7 alcohols, 19 esters, and 5 miscellaneous compounds. Based on principal component analysis of the descriptive data, rice wines were primarily separated along the first principal component, which accounted for 57% of the total variance between the rice wines with high intensities of 'color' and 'sweet aroma' versus 'ginseng' aroma.

This study was carried out to evaluate the quality characteristics of Korean domestic commercial white wines. Four sample wines were analyzed in terms of their pH, total acidity, volatile acidity, alcohol content, soluble solid, free $SO_2$, total $SO_2$, color, free sugar content, organic acid, volatile compounds, total polyphenol content, DPPH radical scavenging activity and sensory characteristics. The pH of wines ranged from 3.06 to 3.76 and their total acidity from 0.43 to 0.83% (v/v). The alcohol content of samples ranged from 9.4 to 12.8% (v/v) and their soluble solid contents from 9.9 to $12.3^{\circ}Brix$. The free $SO_2$ and total $SO_2$ contents of the W1 wine were lower than those of the other wines, while the color intensity, a (redness) and b (yellowness) of W1 wine were higher than the values of the other wines. The malic acid contents of the four wines indicated that complete malolactic fermentation (MLF) occurred in W1, incomplete MLF in W3, and was absent in W2 and W4. Aroma analysis resulted in identification of 10 alcohols, 11 esters, 2 ketones and 6 miscellaneous compounds. 2,3-Epoxybutane and 1-(ethenyloxy)-pentane levels in were significantly higher W1 than the other wines, while several types of ester predominated in W2, W3 and W4. W1 had the lowest sensory score among the four wines. Therefore, the quality characteristics of domestic white wines are considered to be acceptable.

The goal of this study was to screen and characterize the physiological functions of Korean traditional wines (TW) and liquors (TL). Forty-two TW and TL were collected and evaluated for quality and cardiovascular activities. Ethanol content ranged from $9.0%{\sim}41%$, and pH ranged from $3.0{\sim}7.8$, and they also contained 0.01% to 0.67% of total acid. Samples contained a maximum of 2.0% of crude protein and $0.1%{\sim}14.0%$ of reducing sugar. Commercial CM-wine showed the highest antihypertensive angiotensin I-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitory activity, 85.9%. The greatest fibrinolytic activity and platelet aggregation inhibitory activity were also found in commercial CM-wine (31.8U) and commercial SS2-wine (38.6 %), respectively. Commercial SHBI-liquor showed the highest HMG-CoA reductase inhibitory activity, 78%. The ACE inhibitor from commercial CM-wine was a peptide compound and also showed an antihypertensive effect in spontaneous hypertensive rats at a dosage of 1.5 mg/kg.

Four Korean commercial rice wines of diverse sensory properties were hedonically rated by 41 consumers. Each rice wine was paired with the selection from six widely popular compatible foods such as kimchi-jjigae, dotori-muk muchim, tteok-galbi, beoseot-jeongol, satae pyeonyuk, and haemul pajeon, and consumers were asked to rate the ideal match of each pair of four rice wines and six compatible foods by using a structured, 12-cm 'just right' line scale. Hedonic ratings of wines were additionally measured after intake of the food-wine pairs. Flavor matches of rice wines with strong ginseng, medicinal, and earthy flavor (JK) or with intense grain and sweet flavor (HS) were significantly higher compared to wines with fruity (SS) or mild-balanced (BS) flavor. The preference for HS wine, which ideally matched satae pyeonyuk, increased most significantly after intake of satae pyeonyuk, while the SS wine that matched ideally with kimchi jjigae did not show any significant increase in preference after intake of kimchi jjigae. Matching wines with food does not negatively affect the preference for the wine; rather, intake of a wine-food pairing increases the overall preference for rice wine.

To investigate the quality characteristics of domestic $ros{\acute{e}}$ wines marketed in Korea, 11 kinds of wines were purchased at the Korea Wine Festival in 2016. The color, physiological activity, aroma component and sensory evaluations were conducted. The hue value of $ros{\acute{e}}$ wines ranged from 0.592 to 1.990, with the Ro7 of Delaware having the highest value. The brightness of $ros{\acute{e}}$ wines ranged from 42.96 to 94.99, the redness from 3.20 to 59.37, and the yellowness from 8.43 to 24.83. Of the 11 $ros{\acute{e}}$ wines evaluated, 1 was a dry wine and 10 were sweet wines. The average sugar content of the sweet wines was 73.89 mg/mL. Among the organic acid contents, malic acid ranged from 0.214 to 2.903 mg/mL, and lactic acid content ranged from 0 to 3.423 mg/mL. Malolactic fermentation differed, depending on the source. The total polyphenol content of $ros{\acute{e}}$ wines ranged from 50.55 to 99.55 mg%, the anthocyanin content was 2.12 to 213.30 mg/L, and the DPPH radical scavenging activity of $ros{\acute{e}}$ wines was between 73.75 to 90.41%. A total of 41 volatile components were detected, including 7 alcohols, 22 esters, 4 terpenes, 3 acids and 5 other compounds. Of these, 9 compounds had odor activity value(OAV) greater than 1; these were identified as 1-propanol (alcohol, pungent), 3-methyl-1-butanol (harsh, nail polish), ethyl butanoate (strawberry, lactic), isopentyl acetate (fresh, banana), ethyl hexanoate (green apple, fruity), ethyl octanoate (pineapple, pear, floral), ethyl decanoate (fruity, fatty, pleasant), linalool (flower, lavender) and limonene (lemone, orange). As a result of the sensory evaluation, the Ro5 wine made from Campbell Early grape, and having a good color, flavor and taste, was the most preferred.

In this study, four Korean black raspberry wines were developed from different regions in Korea; Gochang (G), Heongsung (H), Jeongup (J), and Sungchang (S). Their flavor profiles were determined using a combination of volatile analysis and sensory evaluation. From the volatile analysis of the developed wines, 8 acids, 17 alcohols, 12 esters, 9 terpenes, 3 aldehydes and ketones, and 4 miscellaneous compounds were identified. Preferences of appearance, aroma, full-body, and overall acceptability in the developed wines were determined using 9-point hedonic scale by 43 panelists, compared with one commercial black raspberry wine (Sunw). The sweetness, sourness, astringency levels were also evaluated using 9-point just-about-right (JAR) scale. The mean overall acceptability score of Sunw (5.58) was the highest among the tested wines, followed by G (4.81), S (4.44), H (4.41), and J (4.13) (p<0.05). Sweetness levels in the developed wines were overall lower than JAR level, while sourness and astringency levels were overall higher than JAR level.

This study identified and compared the volatile flavor components of two commercial rice wines: one fermented using the mycelium of Phellinus linteus and a regular commercial rice wine. The volatile flavor components were isolated from the infusions by Porapak Q (50-80 mesh) column adsorption. The concentrated aroma extracts were then analyzed and identified by GC and GC-MS. Thirty-four kinds of flavor components were identified in the mycelium-fermented rice wine, including 11 alcohols, 8 esters, 3 ketones, 6 acids, 3 hydrocarbones, and 4 others. In the regular commercial rice wine, 36 kindss of flavor compounds were identified, including 9 alcohols, 6 esters, 4 ketones, 6 acids, 9 hydrocarbones, and 2 others. Therefore, the data indicate that the primary flavor components in the rice wines were alcohols and esters.

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.
