#GuipzotAmor

Like our roots in the Westside, our love for wine, history, and community runs deep.

Salena Guipzot (@salenaylosvinos) is a third-generation Westside(r), who grew up nomadic in art, travel, and in vino. Salena began her wine journey in 2010 while living in Portland, OR, spending endless summers in the Dundee Hills of Oregon, sipping on plenty of Pinot Noir. It was when she and her husband of ten plus years, Eduardo "Lalo" Guipzot, decided to celebrate their anniversary by visiting Cuatrociénegas, Coahuila, a pueblo mágico, is where Salena had her very first Mexican wine, Anakoba - Cuatro2 (which remains one of her favorites to this day).  Eduardo, a denizen of Escobedo, Coahuila, a pueblito of 400 people or so, nestled outside of San Buenaventura, Coahuila. Eduardo can trace his roots to the mid-1800s. His grandfather born in an hacienda outside of San Luis Potosi, traveled North to Coahuila, settling his family in Escobedo, Coahuila., Mexico. Eduardo's father, who passed in 2021, lived in the Westside during the 1960s while helping to build the Tower of America for the World's 68' Fair.

So, when it came to opening the first all-Mexican wine shop + tasting room in the country,

Salena & Eduardo chose to open Casa Guipzot - Vinos de Mexico (March 2022) in el corazón

of San Antonio's Westside. In loving memory of their loved ones who came before them. 

 

We are beyond grateful, as we approach our third year in business. From our robust

wine club/community to hosting our annual VinoFest, to the opening of Casa Guipzot at the

La Villita Historic Village in the heart of San Antonio's downtown.
