Spain:

This mountainous country possesses more vineyard land than any other country on earth, and ranks third in wine production after France and Italy. Spain is best known for its red Riojas and its Sherries, however other wines and regions are quickly gaining notoriety. Like France, Spain divides wine into categories; table wine at the bottom level and quality wine at the top, with a large emphasis on geographical origin. VdM (Vino de Mesa) is a basic table wine. VC (Vino Comarcal) wines are a level up. VdlT (Vino de la Tierra) refers to one of the country’s 25 distinct regions, and each wine possesses a local character. At the top level, only about fifty wines are considered DO (Denominacion de Origen). These wines come from the best-known regions and are the equivalent of France’s Appellation Contrôlée. DOC (Denominacion de Origen Calificada) is reserved for wines that adhere to the most stringent regulations. So far, Rioja is the only wine to gain the Calificada classification.

Germany:

The northernmost wine-producing country in Europe, Germany’s cool climates are mostly suitable for white grapes. The best vineyards are situated along rivers such as the Rhine and the Mosel, which temper the extremes of weather and help the grapes ripen. German wines are named after the places they come from, usually a combination of a village name, a vineyard name, and a grape name. German law makes no distinctions of quality between vineyards. As a result, many wines are mass-produced. Look for the classification QbA or QmP to assure that the grower is reputable. The finest wines are given a Prädikat, which is an indication of the ripeness of the grapes at harvest. There are six levels of Prädikat; in order from the least ripe to the ripest they are Kabinett, Spätlese, Auslese, Beerenauslese (BA) Eiswein, and Trockenbeerenauslese (TBA). At the three highest levels, the amount of sugar in the grapes is so high that the wines are inevitably sweet, but since Prädikat is an indication of the amount of sugar in the grape at harvest (and not in the wine) the lower levels of Prädikat offer no direct hint about the wine’s sweetness.

Crumb-Topped Coffee Cake

Rated

Ingredients

2-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1 tbsp freshly grated nutmeg
1 tsp salt
1/8 tsp ground cloves
3/4 cup unsalted butter, melted and cooled slightly or canola or other high-quality vegetable oil
2 tsp baking powder
1 cup buttermilk, at room temperature
2 eggs, at room temperature, lightly beaten
1 cup chopped walnuts or other nuts
2 tbsp granulated sugar mixed with 2 tsp ground cinnamon for sprinkling

Preparation

Position racks so that the cake will bake in the middle of an oven and preheat the oven to 350° F. Grease a 9-inch square pan; do not line or flour it. Set aside.

Place the flour, brown and granulated sugars, nutmeg, salt, and cloves together in a strainer or sifter and sift into a large bowl. Whisk to mix well. Using a spoon, form a well in the middle of the dry ingredients, then pour in the butter or oil and stir, breaking up clumps, until the mixture resembles coarse bread crumbs. Remove 3/4 cup of the mixture to a small bowl and reserve for later use.

Stir the baking powder into the mixture in the large bowl. Add the buttermilk and eggs and beat with an electric mixer at medium speed until smooth, about 1 minute.

Scrape the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the surface with a rubber spatula. Evenly distribute the reserved crumb mixture over the top, then scatter the nuts over it and sprinkle with the sugar-cinnamon mixture. Bake until the cake springs back when lightly touched in the center with your fingertip and a wooden skewer inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean, 45 to 50 minutes; if the top begins to brown too quickly during baking, cover loosely with aluminum foil.

Remove the pan to a wire rack to cool for at least 15 minutes. Cut into squares and serve warm or at room temperature directly from the pan.
