A WINEGROWER'S SHELTER


 Une cadole--a stone hut long-used by winegrowers in the Burgundy vineyards to store
tools as well as to take shelter in during bad weather. These two are in the village of Marcy in the 
Bourgogne-Franche-Comté region. Be on the lookout for them if travelling along a route de vins de
Bourgogne.

Vocabulary
un viticulteur:  a winegrower
un vigneron: a winegrower involved in the entire process of making the wine; from maintaining the grapevines to bottling the wine and marketing it
