Right away dump on some salt to prevent the wine from setting in. Try club soda, pour it on the entire moist area, the carbonated bubbles help to lift the stain... dab don't rub, with an absorbent cloth to sop up the rest of the red pigment... if you're like me and don't keep club soda around you can use white wine to counteract the red!
According to Linda Cobb (HGTV's Queen of Clean), you can remove red wine with white wine. If you have some white wine, pour that onto the stain. Let sit for about 5 minutes. Then clean with Shaving Cream. Any brand works, as long as it's the typical white foamy shaving cream. Shaving cream is nothing but whipped soap that rinses off easily. The last thing you want to use on carpet is overly sudsy soap. You'll never get the suds out. Scrub shaving cream into the stain, and wipe clean with a wet rag. Blot with a dry rag to remove the water. And you're done. If you don't have any white wine, try using rubbing alcohol or white vinegar. (The alcohol is more likely to work than the vinegar, tho.) Good luck. -
