The temperatures are mild, ideal for exploring the hiking and cycling trails that crisscross the region. This period also sees the start of many local wine festivals, offering opportunities to taste regional specialities and local wines.Early autumn is another fantastic time, particularly for those interested in wine. The grape harvest season is in full swing, and many wineries offer tours and tastings of freshly pressed grape juice and young wines.
