GRAPEFRUIT SPRITZ: THE APERTIF FOR WINE LOVERS

Published on: 29th April 2026

The rise of the spritz has been swift, but not all spritzes are created equal. At Yering Station, our Grapefruit Spritz is crafted with wine lovers in mind.

BUILT ON WINE, NOT IMITATION

At its core, the Yering Station Grapefruit Spritz begins with a quality wine base. This foundation brings structure, balance and finesse, ensuring the drink remains grounded in wine tradition. Rather than relying on sweetness for appeal, the profile leans into natural citrus bitterness, lifted aromatics and freshness.

Bright grapefruit sits at the forefront, delivering clarity and tension, while subtle notes of blood orange add warmth and depth. A whisper of honey myrtle introduces a gentle herbal lift, layering complexity without overwhelming the palate. Restrained sweetness keeps the finish clean, dry and refreshing, inviting another sip.

A PLACE AT THE TABLE

A true aperitif should enhance, not dominate. The Grapefruit Spritz is made to be enjoyed before a meal, easing the transition from day to evening and awakening the senses without overwhelming them.
Serve well chilled, over ice, finished with a twist of grapefruit or citrus peel. It is equally at home before a long lunch, at golden hour with friends, or as the first pour of an evening gathering.

A MODERN EXPRESSION OF APERTIF CULTURE

While the spritz has become synonymous with casual refreshment, its roots lie in thoughtfulness and moderation. Yering Station’s expression honours that heritage, offering a contemporary aperitif that feels elegant, balanced and deliberate.

This is not a shortcut to refreshment. It is a considered expression of it, one that reflects our commitment to quality, restraint and wines designed for moments of connection.

Serve chilled, over ice, with a twist of grapefruit peel or a slice of your favourite citrus. Enjoyed before lunch, at golden hour, or to open an evening, it’s an aperitif that respects wine tradition while embracing modern conviviality.

The Yering Station Grapefruit Spritz is available exclusively at our Yarra Valley estate and via our website at yering.com, offering a way to enjoy aperitif culture through a distinctly Yering Station lens.
