Spread the nuts on a baking sheet and toast, checking frequently and stirring a few times, until fragrant and golden, 7 to 10 minutes. Let cool.
Pulse the almonds, parsley and the paprika in a food processor until evenly chopped.
Melt the butter in a large heavy pot over medium-high heat. Add the garlic and a few grinds of pepper and cook, stirring, until golden, about 3 minutes. Pour in the wine and bring to a boil. Add the mussels and cover the pot. Cook, shaking the pot occasionally, until the mussels have opened wide, 6 to 8 minutes. (Discard any unopened mussels.) Reserve 1/4 cup of the almond topping for garnish and sprinkle the remaining topping over the mussels and stir to combine.
Divide the mussels among 4 serving bowls and sprinkle with the reserved almond topping. Serve with crusty bread and lemon wedges.
