Le Manzane: Reservations open for the 15th ®Vendemmia Solidale starting Saturday, August 1st.

A ritual that, for one day, also embraces solidarity. On Sunday, September 6, 2026, from 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., the rows of vines at the Le Manzane estate in San Pietro di Feletto (Treviso) will welcome hundreds of aspiring winemakers ready to transform a day of celebration into a concrete gesture of help. The ®Solidarity Harvest - Celebration and Charity in the Conegliano Valdobbiadene Land returns for the fifteenth consecutive year. Reservations open on Saturday, August 1st: to participate, simply email info@lemanzane.it . No experience is necessary, just the desire to share a special day and contribute to a good cause.

The 2026 edition supports Il Filo di Simo ODV, a volunteer organization founded in 2021 to prevent psychological distress and offer listening, support, and therapeutic options to those experiencing emotional distress, with a particular focus on young people. Through local help desks, school meetings, and awareness-raising activities, the association promotes a culture of mental health based on prevention, dialogue, and community support.

"Every year, the ®Vendemmia Solidale reminds us of the extraordinary power of sharing," explains Ernesto Balbinot, owner of the Le Manzane winery, who, together with his wife Silvana and children Marco and Anna, organizes the initiative. "Over the past fifteen years, we've built a large network of individuals, companies, and volunteers who believe in solidarity. This year, we've chosen to support Il Filo di Simo because it addresses an increasingly pressing issue: psychological well-being, especially among young people. Between the rows of vines, we don't just cultivate the land: we also cultivate hope, relationships, and new possibilities."

The day will kick off at 9:30 a.m. with the start of the grape harvest and the unveiling of the fifteenth "Vigneto Solidale" totem pole, dedicated to Il Filo di Simo ODV. The morning will feature guided tours of the winery, live music with the Black Out Band, and a sumptuous aperitif featuring Le Manzane wines, accompanied by seafood finger foods from Ristorante Ca' del Poggio and premium cheeses from Latteria Perenzin. At noon, Riccardo Checchin will officially present the fifteenth edition of the event with institutional greetings and testimonials from the beneficiary association.

In the afternoon, there's lunch in the Caneva, ice cream for everyone, a prize draw, and numerous activities for both adults and children. Children can enjoy Ludobussola games and artistic activities, while adults will have the opportunity to participate in color harmony, map reading, and test drives organized by the Carraro dealership.

The proceeds of the initiative, together with donations from partners and sponsors and part of the proceeds from the sale, during the Christmas period, of bottles of Conegliano Valdobbiadene Solidale with the ®Vendemmia Solidale 2026 label, will be donated to Il Filo di Simo ODV.
