Viticulture in Elba and in Tuscany
The Island of Elba together with other areas of Tuscany boasts very ancient origins in the field of viticulture , which date back to the Roman and even Etruscan periods. A tradition that never stopped until the crisis at the end of the 19th century caused by the spread of phylloxera .
After the Second World War, the progressive development of tourism led to the abandonment of the countryside and vineyards. Thus we went from 5,000 hectares of vineyards in the 19th century to the current 300.
