Product Overview
Diplomático Single Vintage 2007 opens with a classic Venezuelan richness shaped by long maturation in ex-bourbon and whisky casks, followed by a final year in Oloroso sherry, which gives it its signature layered depth. On the nose it leans immediately into warm, dessert-like aromas—caramel, vanilla, and milk chocolate—lifted by dried fruits such as raisins, figs, and red berries, with a gentle undercurrent of toasted oak and sherry nuttiness. The palate is smooth and rounded, initially sweet but quickly gaining structure through notes of cocoa nibs, coffee, and dried fruit, balanced by baking spices, light pepper, and a subtle herbal or woody dryness that keeps it from feeling cloying. As it develops, darker tones emerge—molasses, roasted nuts, and a touch of tobacco—giving it a more mature, almost savory edge. The finish is long, velvety, and slightly dry, leaving impressions of oak, dark chocolate, and lingering dried fruit with a soft sherry warmth.
