What is the NPR Wine Club?
The club was started primarily as a way for fans of public radio to show additional support for their local station. It aims to introduce new and exclusive wines to those who might not have otherwise tried them before.
How does the NPR Wine Club work?
The NPR wine club only has one membership level. You’ll receive 12 bottles of wine delivered every three months, and you can choose all red, all white, or a mix of both. NPR’s wine partner, Laithwaites, will select the wines for you, but you can shop for individual bottles on the wine club website.
What NPR Wine Club costs
Your regular shipments will be $79.99, but you can also choose two additional seasonal shipments at $149.99 for 12 bottles.
About the wine
NPR has a wide range of varietals on offer with wines from the US, Spain, France, Italy, and Argentina. Some of its popular wines include cabernet, Merlot, and Verdejo.
NPR Wine Club wine club wine brands
As NPR is partnered with Laitwaites, you’ll find a lot of the same brands in the two wine clubs, which include:
Schroeder Estate
Found in the Argentinian stretches of Patagonia, Schroeder produced a popular Cabernet Sauvignon.
Aluado Alicante Bouschet
This winery is based near Lisbon in Portugal on an estate that dates back to the 12th century.
Stones and Bones
Another Portuguese winery, Stones and Bones is known for its full-bodied syrah.
Round the Blend
This winery in Sonoma, California, mixes things up with its wines and produces a number of blends.
Lime Leaf
Located in Rueda in northwest Spain, Lime Leaf is currently producing wines made from Verdejo grapes.
NPR Wine Club membership benefits
There aren’t many additional benefits to membership. This club is very much geared towards those wanting to support public radio. However, you’ll receive an extra three bottles for free as part of your first order.
NPR Wine Club membership programs
There’s only one level of membership at NPR. You’ll get 12 bottles delivered every three months.
NPR Wine Club membership length
There are no minimum contract lengths and you can cancel at any time.
Can I give NPR Wine Club as a gift?
No, the wine club can’t currently be bought as a gift.
NPR Wine Club coupon codes
We couldn’t find any coupon codes that could be applied to club membership.
NPR Wine Club price and shipping
Shipping costs a flat-rate fee of $19.99 per delivery.
The bottom line
If you’re passionate about public radio, then this club might be for you. However, you’re limited in the choice and flexibility you have over your wines.
You might want to go to Laithwaites wine club directly, which offers more choice and flexibility and many of the same wines you’ll find at NPR.
