About Lozach
Born into a family of French restaurateurs based in Hell’s Kitchen in New York City, Serge Lozach has had one foot in American culture and one foot in European since birth. Upon graduation from Queens College of the City of New York with degrees in Communications and Political Science, Lozach immediately focused on wine marketing and sales. Over his career, employers included The Hess Collection, Moet Hennessy USA, SOPEXA USA, and Paul Hobbs Imports. In 2006 Lozach was certified WSET (Wine& Spirit Education Trust) level 3 Advanced. In 2018 Lozach was appointed VP and Managing Director of Wine in Motion USA, an importer specializing in the wines of Portugal. The company’s lead brand is Kopke Port, the oldest Port wine house (est. 1638). This Portuguese (as opposed to British) style Port House is an industry leader in the sales and distribution of Colheitas and Aged Ports, with some of Porto’s deepest cellars. Lozach oversees all marketing and sales, including building the brand’s national distribution network.

Serge resides in Pawtucket, Rhode Island with his wife Irene and enjoys spending time with his new granddaughter Ellie June. When not working Serge can be found roaming the woods in search of prey with his two Cairn Terriers, Hudson and Farouk.

About Kopke Port Wine
Kopke Port Wine (Portugal), est. 1638, is the oldest Port wine house. Located in the upper Douro DOC, a UNESCO Cultural World Heritage site since 2001, Kopke benefits from the imposing geography of the Douro Valley: the plunging valleys allow vines to be planted from altitudes of 1,900 feet on the upper ridges, down to 230 feet alongside the river, with immensely diverse terroirs. Kopke wines are sourced and produced in Quinta São Luiz, one of the most important estates in Douro region. This 300-acre estate has 220 acres planted to traditional Portuguese grape varieties, such as Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca, Tinta Roriz, and Tinta Cão. There are also small plots of Tinta Barroca and Souzão. Kopke is also opening a small inn, The Vine House, at Quinta São Luiz this coming July.
