Nutty
Having a nutlike smell or taste; often said of sherry.
Peppery
A spicy nose and flavor in red wine.

Walnuts
The most overtly nutlike of the various nut descriptors; classic definition for Sherry.

PROSECCO: Minor grape grown in Veneto region of northern Italy and generally used to make both crisp, dry whites and also sparkling wines having a uniquely perfumed aroma and nutlike flavor nuance in the better versions.
