The story

What you're tasting

Elba Aleatico Passito or Aleatico Passito dell'Elba is a passito wine designation associated with Elba. The active canonical entry is the designation itself; individual producers, vintages, cellar practices and tasting notes need separate evidence. The current source foundation verifies its official names, DOCG classification and PDO register identity, while a full current specification review remains pending.

Verified details

Each statement below is linked to the record or institution that supports it.

Elba Aleatico Passito, alternatively Aleatico Passito dell'Elba, is an Italian DOCG and EU PDO wine designation recorded by MASAF for Tuscany. It is a designation, not the name of one producer or bottling.1,2

The Italian official gazette records DOCG recognition by decree of 17 May 2011, with the new specification effective from the 2011 harvest. This is recognition chronology, not the full history of Aleatico on Elba.3

The current register establishes legal identity and protection status, but not a current universal tasting profile, grape, ageing, serving, price or pairing claim. Those require a current consolidated specification plus producer or vintage evidence.1
