    Apply table salt to the wet stain immediately. Allow the salt to absorb the wine. The stain is then easily rinsed away with cool water. May need to reapply the salt to the area for complete removal, but it generally works the first time.
    OR:
    If the stain is dry try soaking the red wine in white wine to bleach it out. Finally, cover the stain with a thick baking soda paste, leave it for a few hours keeping it moist by spraying it with water from a spray bottle. Wash as normal.
    OR:
    Mix 1 cup water with 1/2 cup hydrogen peroxide, then add a little bit of Dawn dish soap. Put the solution into a spray bottle and apply it directly to the stain. The combination of soap and hydrogen peroxide turns the red wine stain clear immediately.

    are your pants washable? if yes soak them in cold water and detergent to loosen the stain and wash them in cold water at a gentle cycle,

    In the past, when I have spilled red wine, I use white wine immediately to get it out. It has worked for me every time! If that doesn’t work try oxy-clean…

    Good Luck!

    -Grab the salt before doing anything else! Dump some salt on the stained area right away, which absorb a lot of the moisture before it sets. Wash as normal as soon as you can.

    - For red wine stains, chocolate or other dark stains that have been there a while, you can try to soak the item in a bowl of glycerine, available from your local grocery or natural store. Soak the clothes for a half an hour and then wash.

    - Party guest spills red wine on your nice carpet? Get up as much of it as you can with a wash or dish cloth, then quickly pour white vinegar directly on the spot. Let it soak for a few minutes, then rinse it out with a wet rag. And then berate your party guest!

    club soda and stain remover. then let it set… add a tiny bit of detergent, scrub it lightly, and wash in cold water, repeat if needed.. do not dry until stain is cured, so it doesnt set!
