Welcome to Kory Wilcox’s The Sippy-Cup.

A while back, I decided to roll my wine-review website into a blog in order to allow others to post their own reviews, as well as comment on mine.  I was sort of hoping some of my friends (cough, Tim) would like to contribute.  But so far, it is only me.  I will keep working on them, though.  If you are interested in becoming a contributor, please comment and let me know!

2009 has so far been a very slow wine year for me, even slower than 2008.  With the wedding coming up and expenses through the roof, it’s been more of a beer season.  :-)  But, there’s a few bright spots!

If you came here looking for a specific wine, please take note that the search feature is inclusive, so if you want to search for a specific rating, brand, name, blend, and/or tasting characteristic, just type them in the search box seperated by spaces.  Note that search does not include categories or comments.

If you’re here looking for general reviews of a specific style of wine, the “Find A Wine” drop down to your right will let you drill down by category to find reviews.  Reviews will be displayed 25-to-a-page, so depending on how broad your category choice is, you might have to keep digging to find something that interests you.

My goal for this site remains to create among friends a place where we can learn our palettes and share our thoughts about wine, but without any snobbery or elitism.  My taste is certainly not a purely objective measure of a wine’s value; there’s still plenty of subjectivity and inexperience at work here.  Nevertheless, I am trying my best to be unbiased as I continue to explore the world of wine.

In any case, whether reading or contributing, my thanks to you for being a part of The Sippy-Cup.  Happy sipping!
