[Carrara] Lighting a dark bottle

OK my skills are very basic. What I am trying to do is create better layouts of the labels I design. I have been putzing all night with this dark bottle. I do like the diffuse highlights rather than hard highlights. I achieved it by accident because I kept applying different shaders to try to get the color I wanted. Is there a way to replace a shader rather than add to it? t seems when I drag a shader it adds to the tree. Any suggestions for getting a more glassy looking black? I used one of Mark Bremmers studio Lighting tutorials to get where I got.
