    Giant wine barrel people-watching on the main street

    A massive wine cask sits outside Vins Marcon with stools arranged like theater seating for the parade of sunburned faces and ski boots. Order a glass of Chignin-Bergeron and watch the mountain comedy unfold. Julie Pers runs winemaker tastings here - producers drive up from the valleys and pour their own bottles while you sit on a barrel in the sun. Inside: a Chartreuse liqueur collection that belongs in a monastery.
