grapefruity
Like bitter citrus
Having the taste, smell, or quality of grapefruit—that distinctive blend of citrus tartness and slight bitterness.
The term appears most often in describing wines, beers, and hoppy IPAs: The Sauvignon Blanc had a grapefruity finish.
Also used for anything evoking that sharp, tangy character: a grapefruity yellow, grapefruity notes in the perfume.
