Is sorting by top 10 items in a group in Pivot Table possible?

In my sample file in the Dropbox link below, I have a table of plants with unique ID number, the families they belong to & their age. I created a Pivot Table and Excel groups plants from the same families together for me. However, I cannot seem to filter the oldest plants by families. When I use the "sorting by top xx items" feature in Pivot Table, Excel always shows the 2 oldest plants in whole table regardless of family grouping. What if I want to see the 2 oldest plants by family "Caltha"?

Thank you!

When did Power Query debut in Excel?
Although it was an add-in in Excel 2010 & Excel 2013, Power Query became a part of Excel in 2016, in Data, Get & Transform Data.
