Why is the article not optional in this case?

[AllanDaemon]

Usually you use the article. You can speak without it and people will understand you, but I'm not sure if it's grammatically right.

[ExSquaredOver2]

I've discovered that it is customary and somewhat necessary to include the article in Portuguese on many occasions, including seasons.

[aidx767]

Could you say "O inverno está vindo?"

[Paulenrique]

Yes, but it is closer to English and sounds odd in Portuguese.
