What supplies do I need to clean sparkling wine stains from a tie?

You will need white vinegar, spot remover, cool water, a soft cloth or sponge, and an iron.

How do I remove the stain?

Blot up as much of the sparkling wine as possible, use a cloth or sponge soaked in a vinegar solution, rub lightly over the stain, clean the area with a damp cloth and cool water, allow the tie to air-dry, and finally press it with a warm iron.

What if the stain still remains?

Soak a piece of cloth or sponge in the vinegar solution, then wring out the excess liquid.
Rub the soaked cloth or sponge lightly over stain.
Check the progress after each rubbing, and continue until stain has been removed.
Clean the area with a damp cloth and cool water.
