There is no translation to the word "vitivinicole" because it actually does not exist in reality. That's the why of my comment

Dear Mr. Ben-Haim, I do agree with you and even I would say that such word does not exist in French. So what would you do to pass the message on to the target language ? You have to submit a translation to your client. This is why I suggested that translation, which is not as short as in the source language, but the correct meaning is there.

viticole refers to the growing of grapes, vinicole to the making of wine

My comment:

vitivinicole is a bastardization of the two terms

I fully agree with your explanations, thus the translation should be in English : wine-growing and wine-producing (covering a large wine activity area). Michèle
