My lack of experience with alcoholic beverages is showing. I strongly suspect that when the answer is given I will have heard of it but at the moment the only answer I can think of doesn't fit unless there are two R's instead of one. Quis's letter is heading that way too.
So N for Nuts.

i'd give a clue, but as you both lack knowledge... note to self, don't ask alcoholic beverages anymore. on the plus side, at least there's only a finite number of consonants in the alphabet!
one clue: there is only one consonant remaining
WINE VARIETIES
S H _ R _ _
Quis (B) - 0 - may guess a consonant
stile (C) - 0 - may guess a consonant
Wrong guesses: B,C, L, M, N, P, T, X, Y

Thoth does have the last consonant!

Quis (V) - 0 - may guess a consonant
thoth (Z) - 1 - may solve, guess a vowel, or guess a consonant
stile (D) - 0 - may guess a consonant
