The phenolic contents and antioxidative properties of selected wines, produced in the northeast of Thailand, were evaluated and compared, particularly those produced at Suranaree University of Technology (SUT) Farm as a case study. Nine wine varieties were used to evaluate their total phenolic content (TPC) by Folin-Ciocalteu method, free radical scavenging efficacy by DPPH method and reducing power by ferric reducing-antioxidant power (FRAP) method. The red wines had significantly higher (p < 0.05) amounts of total phenols, flavonoids and antioxidant activities (AA) compared to white wines. Capillary electrophoresis (CE) was used as a powerful and high performing tool for analysis of principal phenolic compounds in the wines. t-Resveratrol was found in Shiraz, Zinfandel and blended wine varieties. (+)-Catechin was found in all wine varieties, except in Chasselar Dore. (+)-Catechin was present in wines at a higher level than (-)-epicatechin. In red wine, gallic acid was the dominant phenolic acid found.
