Main Street is not just our location…
Posted by The Gateway Club
Main Street is not just our location, but our newest wine selection as well. The Gateway Club is located directly off Main St. in Waynesville, NC on Church St in the old Masonic Lodge that is steeped in tradition. To continue that tradition we are introducing The Main Street Winery by Trinchero Family Estates as our newest wine selection.
The Family-owned Main Street Winery in Napa Valley has provided wine lovers with delicious wines for over 60 years. The grapes are sourced primarily from the winery’s own Napa Valley, North Coast and Santa Barbara County vineyards. Our Main Street Winery collection includes their Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Pinot Noir.
The Sauvignon Blanc combines the tropical, melon aromas of warm weather grapes with the racy, citrus flavors found when grown in cooler climates. This wine is bright, aromatic, and remarkably refreshing. It goes perfect with our Seared Scallops small plate.
We recommend the Chardonnay with our Roasted Pork, the smooth and elegant wine is selected from the very best grapes from premier vineyards in Santa Barbara County. The result is a wine that is balanced and beautiful, with tempting aromas of ripe pear, tropical fruit flavors and a hint of toasted almonds, and the silken finish is accented with spice notes.
The Cabernet Sauvignon uses fruit influenced by the warmer weather of Lake and Santa Barbara Counties and gives the wine its fruit forward characteristics, while the cooler climate of Monterey lends balance and acidity. It is a wine that is deep, dense, and ripe with flavors of black cherry, plum, and a hint of earthiness, a great match with our NY Strip.
Main Street Merlot is well paired with the Gouda Chicken. The grapes are harvested from some of California’s finest vineyards in Monterey, Santa Barbara and Napa Counties where the fruit develops rich, lush flavors. The wine is well balanced, with juicy black cherry and plum flavors and just a hint of vanilla and cedar on the finish.
A popular wine is the Pinot Noir, with its influence of the cooler region of southern Napa Valley, where breezes from the San Pablo bay are sleek and supple on the palate. It is brimming with ripe black cherry and mocha flavors complemented by aromas of cedar, spice, and vanilla, all ready to be paired with our Wild Mushroom Ravioli or Roasted Quail.
Whether your wine is paired for your meal by our Sommelier Marshall or just your favorite varietal, the Trinchero Family Estates Main Street Winery Collection is sure to heighten the senses and dazzle the palate.
“Wine rejoices the heart of man and joy is the mother of all virtues.” - Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, 1771

The main part of the Social District (see last weeks post) is the dining room. The main part of the entire dining experience of The Gateway Club is, of course, the food. The Gateway Club is proud to boast over 67 years of culinary experience! Including a recent win during the Fire and Ice competition Star Chef Challenge in Waynesville, NC.
