In the study, we investigated the optimum fermentation conditions as well as changes of physicochemical and antioxidant characteristics during the fermentation of jujube wine. The physicochemical characteristics of the jujube hot water extracts used in this study were a pH of 5.05, 0.01% acidity, and $6.5^{\circ}Brix$ concentration. For jujube wine fermentation, the optimal fermentation strain was selected among the isolated strains and the final chosen strain was identified as Saccharomyces cerevisiae, based on the 26S rRNA gene sequencing and similarity searching in GenBank DB. The jujube wine fermented with an initial $15^{\circ}Brix$ concentration of jujube extracts showed a maximum alcohol content of 13% and lower residual sugar concentration. Alcohol content during the jujube wine fermentation was increased after 3 days of fermentation, and no significantly difference after 6 days was found. The residual sugar concentration during the fermentation periods was significantly decreased with increasing alcohol content. The jujube wine properties at 12 days of fermentation were as follows: a pH of 4.34, acidity of 0.29%, alcohol content of 12.8%, and a residual sugar concentration of $8.70^{\circ}Brix$. The malic acid content in the organic acid of fermented jujube wine was significantly decreased during the fermentation proceeding, whereas the succinic acid and lactic acid contents were significantly increased. Antioxidant characteristics of the fermented jujube wine were appeared ABTS radical scavenging activity 45.80%, DPPH radical scavenging activity 61.89%, nitrite scavenging activity 91.95% and total polyphenol compound 3.69 mg/ml. In terms of consumer liking of the jujube wine by sensory evaluation, the color and overall acceptability of jujube wine were evaluated as more than average.

The fermentation characteristics of ice wines made from freeze-dried Muscat Bailey A grapes were determined. Muscat Bailey A grapes were concentrated to 34.8 and $40.8^{\circ}Bx$ by freeze drying and were then fermented. The content of reducing sugar was 0.3% in conventional wine after fermentation, but was 21.5 and 23.9% in ice wines at 34 and $40^{\circ}Bx$, respectively. The content of alcohol was 9.6% in conventional wine but was 10.3 and 10.6% in ice wines at 34 and $40^{\circ}Bx$, respectively. It was observed that the red and violet colors of ice wines at 34 and $40^{\circ}Bx$ became dominant compared to the controls. In sensory evaluation studies, ice wines at 34 and $40^{\circ}Bx$ showed higher intensities in color, flavor, and overall preference.

Glutinous rice Sikhye was fermented by Saccharomyces cerevisiae for 10 day at 29$^{\circ}C$. Fermentable sugars such as maltose and maltotriose in glutinous rice Sikhye were converted into ethanol by the yeast, but limit dextrin was remained after the fermentation. fermentation rate of sugars in glutinous rice Sikhye was lower than that in rice Sikhye. Glutinous rice Sikhye wine was found to contain 7.3% of limit dextrin, 3.6% of ethanol, 0.35$\mu$mol/ml of amino acid, 100$\mu\textrm{g}$/ml of protein, and the acidity of the Sikhye showed 3.2, respectively, and its pH was 3.23. Limit dextrin in glutinous rice Sikhye wine showed both signal of $\alpha$-1, 4- and $\alpha$-1,6- glucisidic linkage with its estimation ratio of 5.6:1 by 1H-NMR analysis. The taste of rice Sikhye wine was similar that of wine.

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.

Several domestic new varieties of grapes were utilized for the fermentation of wines, including Cabernet Sauvignon, NY 21576, Canner, SV 18315, Agawan, and Black Bagal red wines, and Naples, Aligote, and Alicante white wines. The oBx values of the grapes ranged between 17 and $20^{\circ}Bx$. Soluble solid content was adjusted to $21^{\circ}Bx$ by adding sugar for all grapes and fermented at $20^{\circ}C$ for 2 weeks. Black Bagal and Cabernet Sauvignon were relatively slower than other grapes with regard to alcohol production rate. The L value of wine made from Agawan and NY 21576 were lower and darker than those of wines prepared from other grapes. Wine made from NY 21576 grapes had a polyphenol concentration of 1.40 mg/mL, which was higher than that of any other wine, whereas wines made from MBA and all white wines evidenced value of only 0.55 mg/mL and 0.15 mg/mL, respectively, after 2 weeks of fermentation. The sensory evaluations demonstrated that the quality of red wines made from NY 21576, Cabernet Sauvignon, Black Bagal, and that of white wines made from Naples grapes were favorable among the different grape variants.

By using whole cells of Leuconostoc oenos ML-34 immobilized in polyacrylamide gel, deacidification of grape juice and wine was attempted. The immobilization did not destroy the original malo-lactic fermentation ability of the cells. However, the speed of malic acid decomposition by the immobilized cells was slow due to the slow transportation of the substrate through the gel layer. By reducing malic acid content in grape juice to a desired degree one may control the level of acid taste in wine fermented with the treated grape juice.
