The "Primum Familiae Vini" association is a select group of family wineries. The idea was conceived in 1990 by the two wine legends Miguel Torres (*1941) and Robert Drouhin, and the association was founded in 1993. The international association of the "First families of wine" is limited to a maximum of 12 members. Each family owns vineyards, is one of the most prestigious wine producers in its region and produces wines of international renown. At the annual general meeting, one of its members is elected as president to represent the association at events around the world. The last presidents were Priscilla Incisa della Rocchetta (Tenuta San Guido) in 2021, Pablo Álvarez (Vega Sicilia) in 2022, Véronique Drouhin in 2023 and Charles Symington in 2024.
