Red wind spill

I would try white wine first, it works well.

I agree. I'm not sure Pot Meta would really do what you want. White wine does a pretty good job. Rubbing Alcohol does a good job. Oxiclean does a good job and is usually safe for fabrics.

I use a product called Folex from Home Depot. It's an amazing product that I found while looking for something to get out spilled sugar free Kool-Aid. I had tried everything including a shampooing but nothing got the stain out completely. Folex got the stain out after it had been down for over a month. Since then I have used it on everything including red wine stains. It's funny, I loved the product so much I actually researched to see if it was a publicly traded company. Unfortunately if it was I couldn't find the connection to a parent company. Everyone I have shown it to is a customer for life now, my entire family uses it. One more thing and I'll stop obsessing. If you squirt some in the palm of your hand, it looks and feels like water with no soapy or chemical smell and is not slimy like some other products. I've used it on every type of upholstery I own it is safe on everything. Ok I'll stop now.

Thanks to everyone for their replies. From the answers I guess I must have dreamed that metabisulfite would work. Now I've got a complete list.
