The vineyards consist of eight hectares. The situation Hahn (single location, Germany) with 4.5 acres located almost entirely in the proportion of exclusive possession, of which the name derives "Hahnenhof".

The wines

The Weingut Toni Jost has long been considered a leading operation in the Middle Rhine, but in the last two decades he made some emerging wineries to place at the top in dispute, with some success. With the 2011 vintage, however, shows Peter Jost, who is now assisted by his daughter Cecilia, with its impressive collection that with the Jost family that operates here now for almost 200 years, viticulture, will continue to be expected. We can not recall having ever attempted here better wines. The series of dry Rieslings impressed as much as the magnificent noble sweet tips. Large part in the success of safe Bacharacher Hahn, whose sometimes extremely steep vineyards now belong almost entirely to the winery. But it seems to us as though Cecilia Jost had here led to a wind and mainly brought ambition, again the most of this jewel be obtained under the best areas of the Middle Rhine. Our collection of the year in the Middle Rhine.
