Step 1: Blot the Stain.
Quickly grab a clean, absorbent cloth and dab the stained area of sweatshirt to soak up as much of the liquid as possible. Keep blotting until stain stops getting lighter.
Step 2: Pre-Treat with Detergent or Dry Cleaner.
For a tougher stain, pre-treat area with a laundry detergent or take it to a professional dry cleaner. Be sure to check the label for instructions on how to pre-treat the fabric.
Step 3: Throw in the Wash.
Wash the sweatshirt with cold water and a mild detergent. If stain persists, you may want to try adding a bit of vinegar or baking soda to the wash cycle to help lift the stain from fabric.
Step 4: Repeat if Necessary.
If the stain still remains, you may want to repeat the process. Make sure to let fabric air-dry between washings, and if necessary, take it to a professional dry cleaner.
Step 5: Let it Dry.
Once the sparkling wine stain is removed, let the fabric air-dry completely. Avoid using a dryer, as the heat can make the stain set in and become more difficult to remove.
