For most travellers, the best time to visit Beard is during the spring (late April to June) and autumn (September to October).Springtime offers pleasant weather, with temperatures typically ranging from 15°C to 20°C, making it ideal for exploring the vineyards and enjoying outdoor activities. The countryside is lush and green, and many of the local markets are in full swing. It's also a great time to witness the vineyards coming back to life after winter.Autumn is another excellent period, with comfortable temperatures averaging between 12°C and 18°C. This season is particularly special as it coincides with the grape harvest, known as the vendanges. You'll find a lively option in the villages and wineries, and the changing colours of the leaves across the landscape are truly picturesque. Many wine estates offer special harvest-related experiences during this time.While summer (July and August) can be lovely, it's also the peak tourist season, meaning higher prices and larger crowds. Temperatures can also be quite warm, sometimes exceeding 25°C. Winter (November to March) is generally quieter and colder, with some establishments having reduced hours or closing for the season.
