The paper reconstructs the historical wine production system in Matera analyzing of the relationships between vineyards, wine presses, and rock-cut cellars within the production chain. By integrating archival sources, architectural surveys, and the conservation and adaptive reuse project of a cellar in the Sasso Caveoso, the study examines the typological, constructional, and functional characteristics of rock-cut cellars and their role in winemaking. The research interprets these structures as components of a historically organized production system, highlighting how knowledge of the production process and architectural characteristics provides the basis for conservation and adaptive reuse interventions consistent with the historical, constructional, and identity values of the heritage
