Elena grew up around winemaking in Bulgaria, produced her first wine at just 16 and later gained experience around the world before settling in South Australia. The estate works with distinctive old vineyards across the Barossa and Eden Valleys, McLaren Vale, Adelaide Hills and Fleurieu Peninsula, combining historic vines with sensitive, hands-on winemaking.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLegacy of Australia comes from Pedro Ximénez vines averaging around 30 years old and continues a fortified-wine tradition begun by the Lindner family in 1944.

Made from 100% Pedro Ximénez, it contains 186g\/L residual sugar, balanced by 7.09g\/L acidity. Alcohol: 18.5%.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Wine Republic","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56290655502721,"sku":null,"price":18.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0916\/0513\/9841\/files\/LegacyofAustralia_XXXOPedroXimenez_DandelionVineyards_375ml.png?v=1789582914","url":"https:\/\/www.wine-republic.co.uk\/products\/legacy-of-australia-xxxo-pedro-ximenez-dandelion-vineyards-375ml","provider":"Wine Republic","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
