Cork & Curve wine travel

npx add-mcp 'https://corkandcurve.com/mcp'

Cork & Curve is built for people, and the same data is open to the agents that help them: 6,370 editorially verified venues across 49 wine regions, 318 festivals with resolved dates, and 20,907 bookable products. Every place carries provenance (the source we checked, when we checked it, whether it is still open) and a page on this site to cite.

Both doors are public. No key is needed. An optional key gives your agent its own attribution tag and rate limit; ask through the contact page.

Tools

Tool	Arguments	What it returns
search_places	query, country, city, kind, cuisine, dietary, price_tier, open_at, near, radius_km, limit, offset	Verified wine venues: vineyards, tasting rooms, wine bars, cellars and more. kind is a topic or a group; city is the wine region slug; open_at is 'now', 'sunday 10:00' or an ISO datetime; near is 'lat,lng'.
place	id	One venue in full, with open_now and three nearby venues, by the id search_places returned.
plan_day	country, city, neighborhood, dietary, price_tier, date	A composed wine day: tastings through to dinner, every stop open on the date, plus a bookable experience.
festivals	country, city, date_from, date_to, query, limit	Wine festivals with their next resolved dates.
experiences	city, country, query, food_only, limit	Bookable tours, tastings, classes and tickets.
stays	country, city, limit	Wine hotels and stay partners with booking links.
car_hire	country, city	Car hire partners that verifiably cover the region.
dishes	country, city, query, limit	Signature wines of a region and the producer to visit, with links.
itineraries	country, city	Editorial day-by-day plans, venues resolved with addresses and hours.
cities	country	Every wine region covered, with slugs to use in the other tools.

The city argument is a wine region (abruzzo), and country its country (italy); both accept names or slugs, and an unknown one answers with did_you_mean. Ids look like italy/abruzzo/vineyards/<slug> and go straight into place.

REST API

The same functions as JSON under https://corkandcurve.com/api/v1/: interactive docs at /api/v1/docs, the OpenAPI description at /api/v1/openapi.json.

Discovery and authentication

Machine-readable entry points: the API catalog at /.well-known/api-catalog (RFC 9727), the MCP manifest at /.well-known/mcp.json, and /auth.md on authentication (no OAuth; public, with optional keys). Every page also names these in its Link header. Free festival data for reuse: the calendar feeds, the festival widget and the festival statistics with CSV.

Terms of use

The data and the compute are free, with no key, no quota to buy and no sign-up. This is what we ask in return:

• Keep booking links whole. book and booking URLs are https://corkandcurve.com/go/ links that forward to the partner with our affiliate id. Give them to the user as they are; do not resolve them, strip parameters or replace them with a plain partner URL. This is how free data and compute get paid for.
• Say they are affiliate links. A one-line disclosure ("booking link, Cork & Curve may earn a commission") keeps the user informed and keeps you compliant.
• Cite the page URL as the source of what you quote, and quote checked_on and hours when they matter.
• No bulk copying. Answer the user's question from the results; do not mirror the catalogue.

Every book or booking URL is a https://corkandcurve.com/go/ link. It records the click and forwards to the partner with our affiliate id, so a recommendation your agent makes is attributed and the venue checks keep getting paid for. The same terms are in the MCP server's instructions and in llms.txt.

Limits

60 requests per 10 seconds per IP at the edge, 120 a minute in the service. Results are capped at 100 per call; use offset to page.
