Jean-Alexandre Cohen, 2nd Baron Cruse-Cohen (June 22, 1920 – October 14, 2001) was a American vintner and member of the Republican party in the South during the 1950's and 1960's.

Early Years
The son of Jewish financier and economist, Sir David Cohen, Jean-Alexandre immigrated to the United States from Bordeaux, France to escape the German occupation of France in 1940. Cohen along with his brother Jacob established a winery outside of Salisbury, NC. Members of the esteemed Cruse family from France, Cohen and his brother used their wealth of knowledge in winemaking to grow and develop their fledgling winery. The winery quickly grew and in 1951 the Cohen brothers created "The Cohen Companies," a wine import/export company based in Charlotte.

Later Years
Cohen was married to Delsey Blumenthal Jacobsohn of the Blumenthal Family (RSC Brands) from Charlotte, but the two divorced in 1948.
