This study analyzed the changes in quality characteristics and functionality of Campbell Early fortified wine based on aging temperature and duration. The pH levels of the wine ranged from 3.74 to 3.87, while total acidity was between 0.40% and 0.49%. After fortification, the soluble solids measured 15.4 to 16.1 °Brix, and the alcohol content remained stable throughout aging, consistently between 24.2% and 24.9%. Color analysis revealed that lightness (L) increased with higher aging temperatures, while redness (a*) decreased. Concurrently, yellowness (b*) and hue values rose, indicating a gradual fading of red color as the wine aged, transitioning toward a yellowish-brown hue. In the free sugar analysis, fructose levels were found to be between 36.24 and 36.71 mg/mL, glucose ranged from 7.67 to 8.51 mg/mL, and sucrose was measured at 1.07 to 1.09 mg/mL. For organic acids, citric acid ranged from 0.013 to 0.027 mg/mL, tartaric acid from 1.033 to 1.228 mg/mL, malic acid from 0.645 to 0.689 mg/mL, and lactic acid from 0.274 to 0.314 mg/mL. Aroma analysis identified a total of 41 compounds, including 9 alcohols, 22 esters, 5 ketones, 2 furans, 1 pyran, 1 acid, and 1 ethane compound. This study highlights the potential for developing premium fortified wines from Campbell Early and suggests that the findings could be beneficial across various sectors of the wine industry.

This study analyzed the changes in quality characteristics and functionality of Cheongsoo fortified wine based on aging temperature and duration. The pH levels of Cheongsoo fortified wine ranged from 2.85 to 3.23, and total acidity was between 0.56% and 0.80%. After fortification, the soluble solids measured 14.7 to 15.8 °Brix, while the alcohol content remained stable during aging, ranging from 21.9% to 22.2%. Color analysis revealed that lightness (L) decreased more rapidly at higher aging temperatures, whereas redness (a*), yellowness (b*), hue value, and color intensity increased, indicating a deepening of color during aging. In the free sugar analysis, fructose levels were between 41.96 and 42.22 mg/mL, glucose ranged from 15.68 to 17.88 mg/mL, and sucrose was found at 0.64 to 0.88 mg/mL, indicating that sucrose remained as residual sugar. For organic acids, citric acid levels were between 0.022 and 0.039 mg/mL, tartaric acid ranged from 2.715 to 3.133 mg/mL, malic acid was between 1.126 and 1.265 mg/mL, and lactic acid measured 0.172 to 0.173 mg/mL. Aroma analysis identified a total of 32 compounds: 6 alcohols, 17 esters, 3 ketones, 3 furans, 1 pyran, 1 acid, and 1 ethane compound. This study highlights the potential for developing premium fortified wines from Cheongsoo and suggests that the findings can be applied across various sectors of the wine industry.
