In the area of St. Jost, clay and slate is predominate in the earth. A pastel-colored layer of shifting sand is found in the soil due to the volcanic eruptions of the Neuwieder Basin more than 10,000 years ago. For this reason the St. Jost area is very suitable for producing high quality Riesling dry wines. These wines boast a delicate fruity taste with an infatuating mellow bloom. |
