Steps:
- Preheat broiler.
- Cut peel, including all white pith, from grapefruit with a sharp knife. Cut segments from membranes and divide segments among gratin dishes.
- Combine yolks, sugar, and wine in a large metal bowl set over a saucepan of barely simmering water and beat with a handheld mixer at medium-high speed until mixture registers 140°F on thermometer, about 4 minutes. Continue beating over heat until mixture has tripled in volume and forms a thick ribbon when mixer is lifted, 4 to 5 minutes more. Remove bowl from heat.
- Spoon sabayon over grapefruit segments and broil 4 to 6 inches from heat just until sabayon is browned, about 30 seconds. Serve immediately.

Steps:
- Cut peel, including all white pith, from grapefruits with a sharp knife. Cut segments free from membranes and divide among 6 bowls.
- Whisk together whole eggs, yolks, and sugar in a metal bowl until combined well, 1 to 2 minutes. Set bowl over a saucepan of simmering water and whisk until foamy, about 2 minutes. Add one third of lemon juice and whisk until thickened, about 1 minute. Add half of remaining lemon juice and whisk until thickened, about 1 minute. Repeat with remaining lemon juice. Continue cooking, whisking constantly, until thickened and an instant-read thermometer registers 170°F, 7 to 8 minutes more. Remove from heat and whisk in butter, 1 piece at a time, until incorporated. Cool slightly.
- Spoon warm sabayon over grapefruit segments. Serve remaining sabayon on the side.
Tips:
- For a richer flavor, use fresh grapefruit juice instead of bottled.
- If you don't have a double boiler, you can make a makeshift one by placing a heatproof bowl over a saucepan of simmering water.
- Make sure the butter and eggs are at room temperature before you start cooking. This will help them emulsify smoothly.
- Don't overcook the sabayon. It should be thick and creamy, but not scrambled.
- If you're using a non-stick pan, make sure to grease it lightly before cooking the cakes.
- Serve the cakes immediately, while they're still warm and fluffy.
