Blueberry is one of the fruits that has high antioxidant activity grown in our country. Blueberry
is also used for wine making. In this study we investigated alcohol amount, total acidity, reducing sugar, total
phenolic content and anthocyanine changes as weekly periods during fermentation in blueberry wine produced
by the classical maceration method. It is also performed some antioxidant tests; 2,2-diphenyl-1-dipicrylhydrazyl
DPPH radical scavenging activity and reducing power in the final product. Alcohol amount is determined as
12% for final product. Total acidity amount of wine decreased from 11.6 g L-1 to 8.7 g L-1during fermentation
and anthocyanine content decreased to 15 mg L-1. Total phenolic content is measured as 199.49 mg L-1.
% DPPH Radical scavenging activity and reducing power was found as 52.5% and 0.170, respectively.
