If the dessert wine stain is still wet, flush it right away with cool water. Blot the stain with a damp white cloth and try to press out as much liquid as possible. If the stain is still clearly visible, apply a laundry prewash treatment directly onto the spot; let it sit for at least five minutes.
If the stain has already settled in and dried, materials of your boxers should be taken into account. For cotton, synthetic blends, and linen, mix together a one-part dishwashing soap and two parts hydrogen peroxide solution. Apply this mixture to the stain and let it sit for a few minutes before washing; if needed, repeat the process. For silk garments, avoid using hydrogen peroxide and instead opt for a solution of equal parts mild detergent and warm water. Rub the spot gently and then rinse with cold water.
