San Antonio, TX, April 17, 2012 --(PR.com)-- Ceci Barretto and Melissa Unsell, the well-known wine bloggers of Vinously Speaking, have expanded their brand by taking ownership of a Medical Center area wine shop formerly known as "Wine, A Fine Wine Shop," a wine shop where Rio de Vino Wine Bar existed a few years ago. "This is an exciting endeavor for us as we strive to ignite the urban wine culture in our great city," says, Melissa Unsell, co-owner of the shop. The store appeals to all wine lovers - novices and experts alike. You'll find yourself perusing the shelves and instantly intrigued by the unique collection of bottles in the store. "Our focus is to offer our clients selections from boutique lots of wine that most times are not offered at other high-volume retail locations," says Ceci Barretto, co-owner of the shop.

To celebrate this special occasion, Ceci and Melissa will host a Grand Opening Celebration at the store May 10th-12th from 2pm–8pm with the Big celebration occurring on Saturday, May 12th. An array of wine samples will be offered, along with live music and a possible food truck appearance. Additionally, all guests will receive 30% off their wine purchases!
