Removing White Wine Stains on Fabric

Whether you've had one too many glasses of Pinot Grigio or a clumsy guest has spilled their Sauvignon Blanc, removing white wine stains from fabric can seem intimidating. But don't worry, it doesn't have to be scary. With the right techniques and materials, you can successfully remove white wine stains from fabric in no time.

Instructions:

  1. Blot the stain with a clean, white towel or cloth to absorb as much of liquid as possible.
  2. Mix a solution of ¼ teaspoon mild laundry detergent and one cup warm water.
  3. Dip a clean cloth into the solution and blot the stain gently.
  4. Continue to blot until the stain is gone.
  5. Rinse area with cold water.
  6. If the stain persists, mix a solution of three parts hydrogen peroxide and one part dish soap.
  7. Dab the stain with the solution and let it sit for a few minutes.
  8. Rinse the area and then dab again with clean water.
  9. Allow the fabric to air dry.

Tips

  • Be careful when using hydrogen peroxide. Test an inconspicuous area first to make sure the fabric does not discolor.
  • Don't rub or scrub the stain - doing so can cause wine to penetrate further into fabric, making it harder to remove.
  • Don't put the stained fabric in washing machine until you've removed the stain.

Using a Commercial Stain Remover

If stain still lingers, you can try using a commercial stain remover. Be sure to read the instructions on the product label first and always follow the manufacturer's instructions. Look for a product specifically designed for removing white wine stains.

Preventing White Wine Stains

The best way to deal with white wine stains is to avoid them. To help prevent spills, keep your guests glasses away from the edge of tables and counters. If someone does spill their white wine, act fast and have spill cleaned up as soon as possible.
