As Ahrweiler fights with the aftermath of deadly floods, wine producers fight for their wine and harvest.
Tanja Lingen from Lingen winery said on Tuesday, "a lot of colleagues here at the Ahr river are affected, there are very few that are not damaged."
Water was still seen in Lingen's cellar, days after tragedy, while many barrels with wine are damaged, equipment ruined and bottles covered with mud.
Describing her own losses Lingen said that, "the whole harvest of last year is ruined, we built it and worked here for 10 generations, and within two minutes it was all gone."
Palatinate, Germany's biggest red wine-growing territory, was one of the regions hit hardest by last week's floods in Germany, as rivers Ahr and Erft overflowed.
Reportedly only two out of 65 wineries in Ahr region were not damaged by the flood.
