Howard’s Folly is an inspiring blend of three key ingredients: an innovative partnership between Chief Winemaker, David Baverstock, and entrepreneur, Howard Bilton; their joint passion to unlock the best of Portugal’s grape varietals; and, a mission to give something back through sponsorship of an arts-based charity for underprivileged children, the Sovereign Art Foundation.
