How to Clean Red Wine From Leather

Removing Red Wine Stains

• 1). Wipe up as much wine as possible up with a clean cloth immediately after the wine is spilled.
  
  
• 2). Sprinkle table salt onto the stain to absorb the remaining wine. Allow the salt to sit for a few minutes.
  
  
• 3). Use a vacuum to remove the salt if the stain is on upholstery. If the stain is on clothing, simply brush off the salt.
  
  
• 4). Remove additional red wine by sprinkling the area with white wine, then blot with a clean cloth.
  
  
• 5). Apply cold water to remove any remaining discoloration. Use a clean cloth to blot away the water and wine.
  
  
• 6). Follow manufacturer instructions for the use of cleaning products if a stain remains. Many leather garments can be professionally cleaned to remove the remaining stain.
