Explanation:
In wine terminology, nutty can mean two things, one good and one bad. The good is having a hint of hazelnut in (nueces is walnuts), as a sort of thickness in the body - a sort of extension of "buttery" if you like. The bad is when the wine has been oxidised - unless it's a fortified wine, in which case oxidation (and nuttiness) is good! It's a bit confusing.

Anyway, I presume you are singing the praises of this wine, and your text doesn't say that your wine has gone off, or it's a port and is supposed to be nutty. In this case I would recommend "avellanado".

Sorry, this is the text I meant to quote from the wineeducation link:

Nutty

A wine tasting term for a wine that exhibits flavors reminiscent of nuts, especially hazelnut. In some cases this can be a sign that the wine is oxidized. Sherry and Tawny Ports are both very nutty, and very oxidized (hence the brown color).

Table wines that have been exposed to air display this aroma which resembles that of certain sherry wines. Considered a flaw by some in red wines, but a desired flavour component in certain white wines by others. (eg: Chardonnays with extended "lees" contact in the fermentation vessel).

MADERIZED
Distinctive brown colour in wine due usually to period of air exposure. Regarded as synonym for "oxidized". Originates from the taste/appearance of Madeira wines. "Sherrified" is commonly used synonym
