GRAVELINDOS X NAKED NOAH
WHO ARE GRAVELINDOS?
Gravelindos is the first and largest gravel cycling community for women in Lithuania.
In Vilnius. Every Thursday. BIKE&WINE.
Since 2023, this community has brought together more than 3,000 women. In Lithuania, the word “gravelinda” has even been coined to describe a girl with a gravel bike. This is not a group of athletes. It is not a performance cult.
It is a community where we measure kilometers in laughter, friendship, and desserts. Everyone comes here to discover cycling at their own pace.
No pressure. No competition. No ego.
HOW DID THE CONNECTION WITH NAKED NOAH COME ABOUT?
Naked Noah and Gravelindos share three distinct philosophies:
COMMUNITY > EGO
EXPERIENCE > PERFORMANCE
JOY > RULES
The BIKE&WINE culture organically intersects with the world of Naked Noah.
Tastings, evening gatherings at the Naked Noah showroom, and a shared love of natural production methods paved the way for what has now happened—the first joint wine.
WHEN WINE AND BIKES SPEAK THE SAME LANGUAGE
The plains of Emilia-Romagna have their own unique rhythm. The roads between the fields of Ferrara are straight and open, and the wind is such that sometimes it feels like it is pedaling for you. This is where Mirco Mariotti grew up—a third-generation winemaker who has lived among two things since childhood: grapes and bicycles.
In his world, these two things always went hand in hand. For him, cycling was not a sport, but freedom: a way to clear his head and feel the earth as only the locals feel it. He makes wine the same way he rides a bike—without noise, without force, leaving everything to its natural rhythm and spontaneous fermentation, which comes naturally in Ferrara.
Mirco wines are unpolished, authentic, and lively. Like a gravel road. Like a morning ride when the sun is just rising over the fields.
And when we tasted his Orange Centro — an orange sparkling wine with a round target on the label — everything came together in a circle.
That orange wheel reminded me of a bicycle wheel. Rhythm. Social ride community.
Wine that moves just like Gravelindos moves.
That is why this wine became the first joint project between Naked Noah and Gravelindos.
So one day we will definitely travel with Gravelindos to Ferrara—the birthplace of this wine, where Mirco walks the same path every day that marks the beginning of this story.
