Which vineyard is a monopole of Toni Jost in Bacharach?

• A. The Loreley vineyard
• B. The Kleine Lage vineyard
• C. The Hahn Grosse Lage vineyard, a monopole of Toni Jost in Bacharach
• D. The Bopparder Hamm vineyard

Answer: (C)

A monopole is a vineyard that is owned entirely by a single winery, giving that producer full control over the grapes and the wine’s character from that site. In Bacharach, the Hahn Grosse Lage is Toni Jost’s monopole, meaning he wholly owns and markets wines from that specific top-site without shared ownership. This makes it distinct from other named vineyards in the area, which are not exclusively his. The Loreley vineyard and the Kleine Lage are not exclusively owned by him, and the Bopparder Hamm vineyard lies outside Bacharach, so they don’t fit the monopole condition for Toni Jost.
