Hello, Well the best way to remove the stain is by pouring white wine over the stain,let it soak in for a few min´s then blot with kitchen roll. It should lift the stain straight away. Next thing to do is with a sponge and cold water wipe the carpet , then with tepid water a& a small amount of your own hair shampoo give this area a wash . Use the sponge and not a brush as the brush will break the fibers of the carpet,rinse with cold water. Then lay a towel on top of the wet patch with a heavy object on top , this will soak up any water from the underside of the carpet, leave like this over night then leave to dry with natural air you might find you will have to sponge this area again, as sooner or later the water stain will reach the surface. Hope this helps with your carpet

I have used white wine, but it doesn't get all of the stain out, you are supposed to do this straight away anyway, so it will be harder to shift. salt I have also tried, only works a little, and then it still needs to be damp, so no good to you now,
I would try the specialist packs you can get from boots specifically for the job of removing red wine, always do a test patch were no one can see it, as these things always seem to take the colour off whatever you put it on, leaving a lighter area, and that goes for most of the other products. IE cilit bang, etc.
good luck

Ah, you've truly the dilema on your palms. pink wine on superb fabric is problematical as may be. Dont screw round with remidies which will in undemanding words 'set the stain'. Use severe information vodka and pour it on freely and dab the stain as you do it. which will wash out the stain for particular and evaporate without damage to the fabric. also basically evaluate eating and serving vodka instead of pink wine. Vodka is going with almost some thing.
