How to Use the Global Wine Score MCP in Cursor

Q: Can I filter wine ratings by specific countries in Cursor?

Yes, you can ask Cursor to find top bottles using scoresbycountry. The editor will query the server for that country's ratings and output the structured list directly into your open file or chat window.

Inject normalized critic ratings and vintage metrics directly into your codebase using Cursor and the Global Wine Score database.

Generate real wine data structures in Cursor

The `get_latest_scores` tool feeds live, consensus-weighted wine ratings straight into Cursor's Composer or Chat. When you build wine list features or e-commerce backends, your editor pulls actual JSON objects instead of mock data. This lets you write precise TypeScript interfaces based on real API responses. Cursor uses these live payloads to write accurate parsing logic on the fly. You don't have to guess the shape of the vintage or regional context because the AI sees the exact schema returned by the server.

Build analytical wine features with this MCP Server

The `scores_by_vintage` and `get_top_scores` tools let you write complex data visualization code inside Cursor using real-world numbers. If you need to build a chart showing historical quality trends, your AI agent calls these tools to populate your frontend components. This eliminates the need to manually download CSVs or write scraper scripts. The integration runs directly through your project's configuration, turning Cursor into a wine-savvy MCP client. This means anyone opening your workspace in Cursor gets instant access to the same live wine ratings without configuring individual environment variables.

Query the global wine index while writing code

The `search_wine_scores` tool acts as an active reference library right inside your code editor. If you are debugging a database seed script or testing an API route, you can ask Cursor to run a live search for a specific bottle. The editor executes the tool and displays the normalized score and confidence index in your sidebar. This workflow keeps you focused on your code. You never have to leave Cursor to look up whether a specific vintage exists or verify how the database handles regional naming conventions.

Setup guide

1

Open MCP Settings

Go to Cursor Settings → MCP or open the Command Palette (Cmd+Shift+P / Ctrl+Shift+P) and search for "MCP: Add Server".
2

Add the Global Wine Score MCP

Cursor will create or open .cursor/mcp.json in your project root. Paste the JSON snippet on the right. Replace [YOUR_TOKEN_HERE] with your endpoint token from cloud.vinkius.com.
3

Enable Agent mode

Open Composer (Cmd+I / Ctrl+I) and switch to Agent mode using the dropdown at the top. MCP tools are only available in Agent mode.
