The 365 Wine Tour Concludes at Stone Cliff
For our final installment in our series of articles on area wineries, we turn our attention back to Stone Cliff, now located in the Star Brewery at the Port of Dubuque. 365ink last featured Stone Cliff in our late July issue of 2007, when owners Bob and Nan Smith were just opening the new facility in the historic brewery building. So it only made sense after featuring some of the other Tri-State area wineries this summer and autumn to check in with the Smiths to find out how things have been going in the past year.

The Asylum Street Spankers Perform in Dubuque
A man works long hours at the circus, cleaning up after the animals and giving enemas to constipated elephants. A friend, observing the menial nature of the work offers to help the man find another job. The man replies, “What? And give up show biz?” Ba-doom-cha!
The punch line to that worn-out vaudeville groaner not only served as the title of the Asylum Street Spankers two-week revue at New York’s Barrow Street Theater last January, but also the title of the new double CD documenting the band’s bawdy and theatrical live show.

Opening the Doors of Rocky Waters Winery
When Jared and Phyllis Spahn purchased over 100 acres of hilly land just east of Hanover, Illinois, in 1994, they just were not sure what to do with it. It had a lot of things going for it – several streams coursing down the rock slopes, a beautiful freshwater lake, and gorgeous panoramic views of the surrounding countryside. 365 explores this winery as part of the 365 Wine Tour Series.
