Autumn is arrived. Cross for some, delight for others, what is certain is that this season marks the return to offices and the daily routine, the arrival of coolness and rains, but also the return to conviviality and meals nourished by some of the most greedy for creation.

A season in which it is always time for a good glass of wine. However, each wine has its own character, there is one for every occasion.

While some wines are more versatile and adapt well to any situation, others need a moment of solitary contemplation to be fully enjoyed; still others are configured as voices out of the chorus and are suitable for someone who has the desire and the time to listen to the story.

So here are the ten wines that we recommend for autumn.
