Abstract
The northern part of the Lazio region, i.e. the area around the Lake of Bolsena, is highly vacated to grapevine production. Since the past, rural landscape has been characterized by vineyards, that represent still today a distinctive trait of this territory. Here vineyards exhibit economical, but also ecological, historical, biological and social functions. Nonetheless, vineyard surface is decreasing dramatically, with evident loss in biodiversity and landscape diversity. The study was carried out in order to characterized through a systemic approach the production of the local variety Cannaiola di Marta and its territorial contest. In order to preserve this production and the related landscape, the germplasm unicity was evaluated, the grape quality was tested in the highly differing physical environments, and the physionomy of the vineyards, as well as that of the rural landscape, was measured through cartographic elaboration. The research has proved that the investigated area is suitable for high quality and unique productions. It is also possible to attribute to these vulnerable vineyards a cultural significance, based on the employment of historic germplasm, on traditional vineyard traits and cultural practices. The viticulture of this territory is included in a equilibrated ecosystem, in which vineyards might preserve the environmental resources of one of the most agreeable territory of the Lazio region.
