Deborah Podurgiel WSET IV Candidate rated this wine as 91/100 with the following review:

I love Summerhill Pyramid Winery's Cipes NV Brut. I love the toasty almond, citrusy acidity and the persistent and lively mousse of fresh honeyed apple, pear, pink grapefruit, lime zest that all come together in a crisp and vibrant bubble rush on the palate.

Produced from a cuvée of 70% Riesling, 20% Pinot Noir, 10% Chardonnay and 100% organic, grapes were whole-cluster pressed and fermented in stainless steel before the cuvée was blended and bottled for its second fermentation in bottle in the traditional method. Cipes Brut is off-dry and will pair with most anything. Chill and enjoy anytime and often. Tasted December 2020.

Unquenchable by Natalie MacLean

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.

The Financial Times of London

There are very few people in the wine world who "get it" and Natalie is one of those who brings more fun to a buttoned-up and stodgy game.
