Wine Stains on Washable Fabrics

One of my comforters has a red wine stain. What is the best home made recipe to take off this stain without damage to my bed comforter? The fabric is cotton.

You're going to think this is crazy, but it has worked for me since I was in my 20s and out every night dancing, and spilling red wine. That is 35 years. Put the item in the kitchen sink with the plug in. Pour cheap white wine on it. You can see the red wine lift out instantly. It's like magic. Then launder as you normally would. When a friend told me this all those years ago, I thought she was crazy. Now, I keep a big jug of cheap white wine under my kitchen sink. (08/19/2009)
