NWG contained about 10% seed, and about 70% of juice. Total sugar content, total acidity and pH of the fruit juice were 17.50, 1.14 and 3.48%, respectively. Tartaric acid and malic acid contents of the NWG juice were 0.396 and 0.509%, respectively. Ethanol fermentation of the NWG by Saccharomyces cerevisiae Montrachet was rapid. The ethanol content, total acidity and pH of pink wine made from the NWG juice showed 11.88, 0.85 and 3.55%, respectively. Tartaric acid and malic acid contents of pink wine were 0.208 and 0.421%, respectively. Total anthocyanin content(A520) and color intensity(A520+A420) of pink wine were 5.46 and 9.39, showing greatly higher total anthocyanin content and color intensity than those of European red wines. Total phenol contents of NWG wine were 2,300∼3,800mg/ℓ. The pink wine made from the fruit juice was better than the red wine in their quality parameters and sensory scores.
