This study investigated the effects of 3 different strains of my yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae Montrachet (UCD #522), S. bayanus Pasteur Champagne (UCD #595), and S. cerevisiae Epernay (CEG) and two grape varieties (Tamnara and M.B.A) on the quality of red wines. During fermentation, sugar content decreased and alcohol content increased Addition of my yeast increased fermentation speed for both grape varieties. Sensory quality tests and tests with an electronic tongue showed that red wine made from M.B.A grapes was superior to that made from Tamnara grapes and that red wine made without the addition of my yeast was better than that made by using dry yeast.

The yeast strains used for fermentation are known to influence the qualities of wine. We investigated the effects of fermentation using different yeast strains on the properties of wine produced from 'Hayward' kiwifruit (Actinidia deliciosa). The physicochemical characteristics of wine produced using various yeast strains for fermentation were also analyzed. Saccharomyces cerevisiae Gervin No.5 strain (GVN), S. bayanus Lavin strain EC1118 (EC1118), and S. cerevisiae Red star Davis No. 796 (No.796) are commercial dry yeast strains selected for optimization of fermentation. Although the soluble solid contents of samples fermented by all three yeast strains decreased by a similar extent, the levels of alcohol production differed, particularly during the first week of fermentation. Use of the GVN strain resulted in the highest alcohol concentration (13.8%, v/v), whereas fermentation with No.796 and EC1118 strains yielded alcohol contents of 13.0% and 12.5% (both v/v), respectively. Upon sensory evaluation, GVN-fermented wine had a strong taste and bitterness, with high acid and alcohol contents. Wine fermented using No.796 had a chemical profile similar to that of GVN-fermented product, but the taste remained sweet, consistent with the lower alcohol content. EC1118-fermented wine was soft and sweet in taste, high in flavor, and had a low alcohol content. Total phenolic levels and antioxidant activities in wine fermented by EC1118 were significantly higher than in wines prepared using No.796 or GVN. When previously described characteristics were additionally considered, EC1118 was selected as an optimum strain for further study. In conclusion, fermentation of kiwifruit using different yeast strains yielded wines with distinct characteristics. The yeast strain EC1118 had the most desirable properties, and is considered suitable for kiwifruit fermentation. Valuable attributes of wine fermented by this yeast include overall sensory acceptance, an appropriate level of total phenolics, and good antioxidant activity.

The domestic grape cultivar Campbell Early has high levels of both malic acid and tartaric acid. Therefore, the processing of wine made from Campbell Early must include decreasing the acidity. Six different methods were tested for reducing excess acidity: traditional vinification, precipitation, cold stabilization, malolactic fermentation (MLF), carbonic maceration and cold fermentation. Wines had higher pH values and lower total acidity than control after all the processing methods except cold stabilization. With regard to the measured organic acid content, the control contained 2,927 ppm tartaric acid, 2,421 ppm malic acid and 486 ppm lactic acid, but the precipitated wine contained 2,346 ppm tartaric acid. The MLF wine contained 828 ppm malic acid and 2,394 ppm lactic acid. Wine after carbonic maceration contained 792 ppm malic acid and cold fermentation decreased the organic acid contents in general. Sensory analysis showed that the carbonic maceration and precipitation methods resulted in wines that were excellent in color, flavor, taste and overall preference.

This study was designed to test the effects of enzyme treatments on the extraction of total phenolic compounds and on color characteristics in wines from domestic MBA(Muscat Bailey A) grapes. The total phenolic compound content of the MBA grape wine was $1,352.8{\pm}37.8\;mg/{\ell}$ at 10 days of fermentation. Furthermore, MBA wines treated with 2%(v/v) of Pectinex and Viscozyme had 14.5%(p<0.05) and 3.8% increase, respectively, in total phenolic compound content by 10 days of fermentation. Pectinex treatment was more effective for phenolic levels than Viscozyme treatment. The L, a and b values of the MBA grape wine were 7.4, 9.2 and -1.2, respectively, by 10 days of fermentation. The values in case of Pectinex enzyme treatment were 7.0, 10.6 and -0.8, respectively, and these values were significantly different according to Pectinex treatment(p<0.05). But the values in case of Viscozyme enzyme treatment were 7.2, 9.8 and -1.1, respectively, and these values were not different according to Viscozyme treatment. The hue and color intensity values of the MBA grape wine were 0.492 and 0.785, respectively, by 10 days of fermentation. The values in case of Pectinex enzyme treatment were 0.460 and 0.881, respectively. And as a result of the Pectinex treatment, the hue value of wine was decreased and color intensity was increased slightly(p<0.05). But the values in case of Viscozyme enzyme treatment were 0.482 and 0.805, respectively, and these values were not different according to the Viscozyme treatment.

Kiwifruit wine was prepared with the domestic new cultivars 'Jecy Sweet' and 'Jecy Gold', and quality characteristics were investigated during fermentation with Saccharomyces bayanus Lalvin and Saccharomyces cerevisiae Fermivin and aging for 120 days at $15^{\circ}C$. Total acidities were 0.94% and 1.22% for 'Jecy Sweet' and 'Jecy Gold' at the beginning, respectively, and increased gradually during fermentation; highest acidities were 1.49% and 1.26%, respectively, on the 6th day of fermentation regardless of yeast strain. Alcohol content increased greatly from the 4th day of fermentation and was highest (10.2%) in 'Jecy Sweet' fermented by S. bayanus Lalvin, followed by 9.2% in 'Jecy Sweet' fermented by S. cerevisiae Fermivin and 9.4% in 'Jecy Gold' fermented by Lalvin and Fermivin on the 12th day of fermentation. Soluble solid content was $24.8^{\circ}Brix$ at the beginning and decreased gradually during fermentation. The lowest soluble solid content was $9.7^{\circ}Brix$ on the 6th day of fermentation regardless of kiwifruit cultivar and yeast strain. Total phenols in 'Jecy Sweet' (1,127 mg/L) were 1.32-fold higher than those in 'Jecy Gold' (848 mg/L) and decreased greatly until the 6th day of fermentation, after which they increased slightly until the 12th day of fermentation. During aging, total phenols increased until the 30th day and were maintained for 120 days. Quality characteristics of kiwifruit wines were similar between the two yeast strains but were different between kiwifruit cultivars. Contents of ethanol and total phenolics were higher in 'Jecy Sweet' wine than in 'Jecy Sweet' wine.

Fermentation of ice apple wine from freeze-concentrated Fuji apple juice to 36 $^{\circ}Brix$ was carried out using Saccharomyces cerevisiae SS89, a sugar-tolerant wine yeast strain. The characteristics of the fermentation and the properties of ice apple wine were compared with those of S. cerevisiae W-3, an industrial wine yeast that was used as a control in this study. During the fermentation, the alcohol content increased more rapidly by S. cerevisiae SS89 together with the decrease of the soluble solid content, compared to S. cerevisiae W-3. It reached 12% (v/v) after 15 days of fermentation by S. cerevisiae SS89 (12.4%, v/v) and 21 days by S. cerevisiae W-3 (12.6%, v/v). The soluble solid contents of the SS89 and W-3 wines were 24.0 and 23.6 $^{\circ}Brix$, respectively. Lactic acid was detected at the highest level, followed by malic aid, among the organic acids in both wines. No big differences in the organic acid contents were observed based on the strains. In the SS89 wine, higher levels of methanol, propanol, butanol, and isoamyl alcohol were detected, together with a lower isobutanol content, compared with the W-3 wine. The SS89 wine showed higher level of intensity as well as higher Hunter's L and b color values compared to the W-3 wine. In the sensory evaluation, similar scores in color, flavor, taste, and overall preference were obtained in the two wines. Therefore, S. cerevisiae SS89 was thought to be useful for the rapid fermentation of ice apple wine.

The domestic cultured Campbell's Early and Geubong grapes were fermented far the production of red wines with the isolated wild yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae IJ850. For the isolation of wild yeast, Geubong and Campbell's Early grapejuices were naturally fermented at room temperature for 6 days without adding stater culture. The strain isolated from Geubong which has 1.8 times higher fermentative ability than the strains isolated Campbell Early was selected. The selected strain was identified by using 26S rDNA sequencing. The strain showed 99.7% of similarity with Saccharomyces cerevisiae and thus identified as Saccharomyces cerevisiae IJ850. It was investigated the fermentative ability as the start culture. For the production of grapewine, the final sugar concentrations of grapejuices were adjusted to the $25^{\circ}Brix$ with anhydrous glucose. The grapejuices were fermented at room temperature for 10 days in the air-locked bottles filled with $CO_2$ gas. The final yield and alcohol concentration of Campbell's Early and Geubong grapewines fermented with the isolated wild yeast were 80.8%, 11.0% and 87.8%, 13.0%, respectively. Between the isolated wild yeast S. cerevisiae IJ850 and the commercial yeast S. cerevisiae EC1118, total acidities of grapewines produced with wild yeast were lower than those produced with the commercial yeast. The pH values and the values of color analysis of grapewines produced with both strains were similar. The total phenol contents of campbell's Early and Geubong wines produced with the isolated yeast and the commercial yeast were obtained in the range of 75 to 125mg/L. In conclusion, S. cerevesiae IJ850 isolated from the domestic cultured Geubong grape is able to use to produce grapewines as stater culture.

Various varieties of mulberry fruit and wines were investigated to determine their chemical properties and fermentation characteristics. Mulberry wines were manufactured with 'Cheongnosang', 'Cheonhyunosang', 'Deokcheonsang', 'Hwachosipmunja', 'Hwanyoupdaeyoup', 'Jasan', 'Mansaengbaeckpinosang', 'Palcheongsipyung', 'Sabangso' and 'Susungppong'. The factors for wine fermentation and quality such as soluble solids, polyphenol and organic acids were analyzed. The contents of soluble solid, reducing sugar and polyphenol, which were affected significantly by each other, were higher for 'Hwanyoupdaeyoup', 'Jasan' and 'Palcheongsipyung' mulberry than other varieties. Organic acids such as citric, malic, succinic and acetic acid were detected in the mulberry fruits. 'Palcheongsipyung' mulberry fruit had a higher content of souble solids $(14.6^{\circ}Brix)$ and polyphenol compounds (2.15 mg/ml). After fermentation, 'Palcheongsipyung' mulberry wine showed the lowest acetic acid in 3.23 mg/ml and the highest citric acid in 12.3 mg/ml. From these results, 'Palcheongsipyung' mulberry fruit was the most suitable for the fermentation of mulberry wine.

Ethyl carbamate (EC) is a contaminant generated in the fermentation processes of various fermented foods. In this study, residue levels of EC in 95 alcoholic beverage samples were determined by using Gas Chromatography/Tandem Mass Spectrometry (GC/MS/MS). All the samples were purified by a liquid-liquid extraction (LLE) method using dichloromethane. The LLE method enables an improvement in time and cost to detection and specificity over the conventional extraction methods. The limits of detection and quantification (LOD and LOQ) to analyze EC were 1.3 and 4.0 ng/mL, respectively. The recovery rates of EC were ranged from 90.0 to 97.5% at the levels of 50, 100, and 500 ug/L. Among traditional grain-based alcoholic beverage samples (n = 34), the average residue levels of EC in takju, yakju, and cheongju were 0.63, 7.01, and 14.11 ug/L, respectively. Among fruit-based alcoholic beverage samples (n = 48), those of EC in japanese apricot spirits, bokbunjaju, grape wines, and other fruit wines were 79.18, 1.66, 2.64, and 2.39 ug/L, respectively. Among distilled or diluted alcoholic beverage samples (n = 13), those of EC in soju (distilled or diluted), general distillates, liquors, and brandies were 0, 3.30, 8.20, and 8.52 ug/L, respectively. Therefore, this study reports that the residue levels of EC in the alcoholic beverages, distributed in the current domestic markets, did not reach its maximum allowed levels of 30 and 400 ug/L established for grape and fruit wines in Canada, respectively.
