WINE (940 kHz) is a commercial AM radio station broadcasting Brazilian Portuguese programming. Licensed to Brookfield, Connecticut, it serves the Danbury area. The station is owned by the International Church of the Grace of God as part of its "Nossa Radio" network.

By day, WINE transmits with 680 watts, but because 940 AM is a Canadian and Mexican clear channel frequency, WINE reduces power at night to only four watts to avoid interference. The station's transmitter is on Carmen Hill Road in Brookfield.[2]
