    If stain magic didn't work and the stain was reddish in color, I would rinse the area extremely well, maybe even with a defoamer, and try Red Relief.

    I find that Balsamic vinegar responds best to a good acid-side wine strain treatment.

    I have even removed it from a wool carpet with no more than 50% solution of white vinegar followed by a plain cold-water rinse.

    Interesting to be using an acidic cleaner to take out an acidic stain.
