I was staying here on the weekend using a free weekend night award. The Plat Amenities (they had a book to look through at check in) were a few choices of leather goods (Coasters, Wallet and a few other options), 500 points, or a bottle of Don David Malbec (2007). I chose the wine ^

When I got to my suite (yes upgraded), there was another bottle of wine waiting for me, along with a full bowl of fruit and a selection of chocolates.

Now that's how a Platinum guest likes to be treated !

P.s. googled the wine upon my return :

Wine magazine recently awarded this outstanding wine 2nd place and 95 points in their Argentine Malbec tasting writing "Nice intensity of liquorice fruit with good concentration ... modern, juicy, sexy wine ... a superb palate with length and sweetly toasted oak."
