The deadly floods are followed by a massive wave of solidarity from the wine industry, supporting its machines and menpower. Numerous wines were donated from Germany, Austria, sold as sample packages. Proceeds go to reliable organizations. Wine connects, not only in good times.
After the severe floods hitting the Ahr River valley, so many lost their loved ones and livelihood. Numerous wineries are completely destroyed. Out of 50, only five are still operational. The vineyards have to be looked after, harvest 2021 is just around the corner. But how ...?

The South African wine industry has been hit hard by the extension of the actual alcohol ban! Let‘s support this fantastic sector of 300.000 people working together making great wines. Let's buy more and share the love for these wines with others globally! #savesawine
The Pres and his govt clearly doesn't understand nor appreciate how the wine industry works. The wine industry has been hit a severe blow and many smme's will have to close down permanently. Major job losses to follow. @Vinpro_za @PeterPentz

Very much enjoying a glass of this so drinkable pinotage/cinsaut @AndreMorgenthal left with me. Its purpose to help @CapeWinemakersG protégés, @oldvineproject & #savesawine devised by WOSA’s @petramayer. Thanks @winemag pic label.
Our Imvini Wethu is a unique blend of Cinsault and Pinotage! It seems we are not only doing good by sharing all our profits but also by being an inspiration for a uniquely South African blend and taste profile! @gregsherwoodmw
Could Cinsault-Pinotage blends amount to something both compelling to drink and simultaneously uniquely South African? @gregsherwoodmw ponders these two varieties: winemag.co.za/wine/opinion/g…
