Winter/the Winter

Is there a difference between "...in Winter" and "...in the Winter"?
More importantly: is "in the Winter" even correct English?

Yes, I think there`s diffrenece between them, but it`s not so big actually! ) In my opinion you can say "the winter" if you are talking of a particular situation, but if you`re saying that in general, you don`t need to say "the". For example: 1) I`ll go to my grandparents` in the winter ( it means this winter or may be the listener knows what time you will go there exactly) 2) I like to go to my grandparents` in winter ( in general, you like to go there in winter seasons) This was my opinion,and I hope you`ll find it useful!

As a native speaker I'm not sensitive to much difference between them, tho OrujoV's idea sounds reasonable!
