When a red wine stains on your clothes it can really ruin your drinking session.
As a result of the red stain, you may become over conscious and pay more attention to the stain than your wine. Knowing how to deal with it can help calm some of your anxiety and turn your attention back to the wine.
We list a few different methods to remove wine stains below:
1- Rub salt on fresh stains
After a while, the stain will set into the cloth, so the best time to attack a stain is when it’s still fresh. If you see a stain on your clothes, get some salt and sprinkle it on the stained area. Salt is hypertonic and will absorb some of the stain out of the cloth. After that, rinse the spot with some hot water. Most of the stain should come out.
2- Pour white wine over the stain
If your clothes are white in color, you can pour some white wine over the stain. The white wine stain will neutralize the red wine stain.
3- Prevention: Wear dark colored clothing to a drinking session
This may sound like common sense but if you are going to a tasting event, wear dark-colored clothes. Also avoid delicate fabrics like linen or silk. By thinking ahead you could avoid heartbreak.
