What is an Aristocratic republic?
An aristocratic republic is a form of representative government in which the nobility(aristocracy) lead, they aren't necessarily be the most skilled or intelligent people but they are born into a position of wealth and status and derived their power from that. It's contrasted from a democratic republic because it does not allow the ordinary citizens to vote for their representatives. In a republican aristocracy, representatives are voted in by their peers.
Another View:
Republic and Aristocracy are two quite different words. Republic comes from the Latin res publica = things held in common. An aristocracy is 'rule by the best people' but in the practical word is oligarchy 'rule by the few', so there is a clear difference between aristocratic/oligarchic rule and the idea of everything held in common ownership of a republic.
Aristotle postulated
Monarchy (rule by one) which tends to degrade to tyranny (rule by a single autocrat).
Aristocracy (rule by the best people) which tends to degrade to oligarchy (rule by the few).
Democracy (people power) which tends to degrade to ochlocracy (mob rule).
So the idea of an 'aristocratic republic' is a contradiction.

How did the plague and the blockade help the winner of the Peloponnesian War?
The Peloponnian League faced an Athens weakened in the short and middle term of the 27-year war by losing a third of its manpower in the plague outbreaks of 430, 429 and 427 BCE. Replacing these soldiers and seamen, further reduced by the loss in Sicily, took over two decades as the children grew up, and by then the war was turning against Athens when Persia began supporting the Peloponnesian League.
The blockade of Athens in 404 BCE by land and sea, after the anihilation of its fleet the year before at Aigospotamai, left Athens with no option but to surrender - unable to produce food, cut off from imported food supplies, and with its overseas garrisons forced home into the city to exacerbate the food crisis.
With the city-state of Athens decimated by the plague , along with the loss of it's prominent leader Pericles , Sparta was left in the stronger position and ultimately persevered over Athens .
