Primum Familiae Vini


Primum Familiae Vini (often abbreviated PFV, Latin: "First/best families of the wine") an association of family-owned wineries with a membership limited to twelve families/wineries. The association was established 1993 by Miguel Torres and Robert Drouhin (of Maison Joseph Drouhin), after they had first come up with the idea in 1990. The goal was to organise some of the best wine-producing families of the world, and to facilitate exchange between them. Requirements for membership is ownership of a winery which belongs to the top echelon of its region, and enjoys a high international reputation. New members are only accepted by unanimous decision.

As of 2009, PFV has eleven members.

A few former members have had to leave after they have no longer qualified as family-owned wineries.
