This is absolutely foolproof for any laundered items! Mix Dawn dishwashing liquid soap with hydrogen peroxide...then pour on the stain and let sit as a presoak. Neither of these ingredients works by itself. You must use BOTH. You'll actually see the red wine disappear as you drizzle the mixture on a stain! I have used it to take major red wine stains out of ALL clothing and table cloths (regardless of the color of the item). I have used it on old dried stains and stains that were laundered, bleached and subsequently turned "yellow". OLD, old stains have been successfully removed. Just make sure the soap/peroxide mixture is relatively fresh.

I know this is too late, but if it happens again, pour salt over it, and I mean a full bag of salt. Needs to be about 1-2 inch thick all over the spill.
Leave it overnight and vac it in the morning - it has gone.
Some people say that salt will actually "fix" the stain, but we have done this twice now with great success.

There is a product called EXIT SOAP that is an amazing stain remover I have used it on red wine on a rug and also for some that I spilt in the upholstery in my car. Its amazing

Even now, if you soak it in WHITE wine, it will neutralise the stain. I had a cream fleece and someone spilt red wine on it. Soaked it for a few hours and it disappeared.
If not, just suck it out.

Have you tried Oxy or Vanish products? I never had problems with those.

If all else fails, buy a throw to cover the sofa.
