Susanna Loh:

After College and MFA studies, Susanna lived in France and Morocco where she fell in love with food; returning to the US to work as a chef in the Northeast. Moving to the wine industry was a natural fit and pairing food and wine is a great joy. She has been selling Portuguese wines for over 15 years. As a Certified Specialist in Wine, she joined Premium Port in 2018. When she's not extoling her love for wine and what you should drink with your dessert, you will find her playing Hickory Golf in the beautiful Sandhills of North Carolina.
