The secret is (a) take action immediately and (b) don't let it dry. Sprinkle some cold water (hot will fix the stain) on it, press some kitchen roll on it to absorb. Repeat if nec, dab don't rub.

White wine on it , I think distilled white Vinegar may work as well and whilst it`s damp just up-end a whole tube of Saxa salt on top of it to draw it up out of the carpet , leave the salt on it overnight if needs be .
