man sshd:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
SSH WITH TCP WRAPPERS

  When sshd is compiled with tcp wrappers libraries, then the host.allow/deny
  files also controls who can connect to ports forwarded by sshd.

  The program names in the  hosts.allow/deny  files  are  sshdfwd-<portname>,
  sshdfwd-<portnumber>, and sshdfwd-X11 for forwarded ports the ssh client or
  server is listening.

  If the port has name defined then you must use it.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

So add

sshdfwd-X11: ALL : allow

or similar to your hosts.allow file.
