Spring (April-May) offers mild weather, blossoming gardens, and emerging champagne season. Summer (June-August) brings warm temperatures and festivals but larger crowds. Fall (September-October) features harvest season with vineyard activity and excellent wine tourism. Winter (November-March) is quieter with holiday markets and elegant, cooler ambiance. May and September are ideal for comfortable temperatures, moderate crowds, and peak tourism infrastructure.
