(arched) cane
from Wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Murgh/Vine_training_system...
Arched cane
A variation on many different forms of training systems where canes are arched rather than being tied horizontally, see Guyot. Alternative names include bow trained, arcure in French, Capovolto or Guyot ad archetto in Italy. This practice is claimed to lead to better budbreak in the centre of the canes, where buds do not normally burst well. It can be considered a variation of Guyot training.
There are many more experienced wine translators than me around though, so don't take my word for it!
